Re: Possible / probable false positive Trojan.OSX.Generic detection on SABnzbd.app

The false positive seems to have been confirmed. Scanning the download today with updated definitions, the file's no longer detected as a trojan. Thanks again--I appreciate the feedback and guidance. I know I sounded overly paranoid, but I work in a cybersecurity-related field, so I try never to wor...

Re: Possible / probable false positive Trojan.OSX.Generic detection on SABnzbd.app

Sorry—looks like I misinterpreted the prior results, and the detection itself was made by the Ikarus engine; it isn't what was detected. My bad! :-\ Should have done this right away, but things have been busy. I dropped the file SABnzbd.app/Contents/MacOS/SABnzbd itself into VirusTotal. 5 of 64 vend...

Re: Possible / probable false positive Trojan.OSX.Generic detection on SABnzbd.app

Just curious what the IKARUS engine in SABnzbd does, if anyone can tell me. Search results bring up the virus scanning engine. If that's what it is, then I won't worry anymore. I did read the info at that link. Never had a problem scanning in the past. I used to work in virus removal for a big secur...

Re: Possible / probable false positive Trojan.OSX.Generic detection on SABnzbd.app

OK, I was able to drop the zip file onto https://metadefender.com/ and this is what came up: Engine Name: IKARUS Verdict: Trojan.Generic.MalwareX The path is SABnzbd.app/Contents/MacOS/SABnzbd Here's a screenshot that I took of the results. ETA: Never mind on that edit. There is an AV scan engine ca...

Re: Possible / probable false positive Trojan.OSX.Generic detection on SABnzbd.app

Thanks a bunch—I'll try that! (I wouldn't know what I was looking at, to be honest, looking at code.) ETA: Well, with VirusTotal, there's a size limit of 3MB, the app reads as a folder, and you can only scan one file at a time. Tried uploading a ZIP file it's still too big and again, multiple files ...

Possible / probable false positive Trojan.OSX.Generic detection on SABnzbd.app

Updated SABnzbd to 4.5.3 on 25 August. 2.) Scheduled full scan ran on boot drive on Tuesday, 26 August with definition version 1.4.1...

Re: Question about 4.2.1 - system requirements

Just to follow up on the initial post: this time when I swapped out 4.1.0 for 4.2.1, everything worked flawlessly :)

Thanks again!

Re: Question about 4.2.1 - system requirements

Thank you for clarifying! Much appreciated. Will have another go at upgrading later. Maybe something like this? macOS 10.9 and later (Intel / M1 / M2) or macOS 10.9+ (Intel / M1 / M2) Usually if the OS supports the hardware, it's not necessary to restate supported processors, so in this case since t...

Question about 4.2.1 - system requirements for Mac

Hey all, long-time user here with a question about the 4.2.1 release. The downloads page says for macOS : (macOS 10.9+ and M1/M2) I'm still running Monterey (macOS 12.7.2) because my iMac is old enough that I can no longer upgrade, so clearly I do not have an M1/M2 chip. I'm trying to interpret what...

Re: After sabnzbd upgrade, sickbeard message "Unknown failure sending NZB to sab." but it it isn't failing

We have have dropped old code from the API so now it is consistent. But sickbeard doesn't understand it. Sickbeard hasn't been updated in many, many, many years.. You should consider switching to any of the forks, so you'll be working with something that is still being actively maintained :) Oh, ma...

After sabnzbd upgrade, sickbeard message "Unknown failure sending NZB to sab." but it it isn't failing

Having a strange problem ever since updating to 3.0.1 on 26 August 2020. I updated to 3.0.2 on 31 August but this is still happening. OS: macOS Catalina, 10.15.6 Sickbeard fetches a show that hasn't aired yet, and reports that it can't send the NZB to sab: 2020-09-05 11:18:05 ERROR SEARCHQUEUE-RSS-S...
