I am wondering if Bitdefender has been the victim of a supply chain hack !!
I login into my computer under a non-admin account. When I login, my computer prompts me to enter my admin password to install two files:
C:users\username\AppData\Local\Temp\RarSFX1/bddeploy.exe
C:users\username\AppData\Local\Temp\RarSFX1/installer.exe
The digital certificate for the file appears to be from Bitdefender.
I have attached screen shots !!
The Bitdefender app indicates that it is up to date so it is unclear why there is a file being auto-downloaded to my temp folder trying to auto-execute itself.
Interestingly, when I open my Temp folder to locate the downloaded file in order to scan it, the file folder and file, appear then disappears on its own so it cannot be scanned.
There does not appear to be a way checking the file as it appears that trying to locate it causes the file to disappear. Also no way to send this concern to Bitdefender.
I thought about posting this on youtube.
Any thoughts ?
Bitdefender, please respond
