Trojan in Warcraft III classic?
Hi there,
today, Kasperky has reacted to a trojan in my Warcraft III folder:
Type : Trojaner
Name : Trojan-Banker.Win32.CliptoShuffler.bqd
Object Name: ClientSdkMDNSHost.exe
Seem to also have been related to CompatTelRunner.exe
Does anyone know what this “ClientSdkMDNSHost.exe” is and if it’s part of the normal Warcraft III files?
Kaspersky says it deleted this files from the folder within Waracft III: retail\x86_64
That’s not part of the currently support client, and not part of the download from our website.
If you downloaded or obtained your client from somewhere else then it may contain files from the source that are not part of the original, as you cannot obtain the “Classic” client from Blizzard directly you’d need to contact your distributor.
We don’t support people who are running the “Warcraft 3 Classic” client which no longer is patched or accessible. Instead WC3 is accessed through the Reforged Client.
FuenteDo you have the exact file extension location for the “trojan”?
It seems this could be a false positive, but would still want to confirm some more information.
FuenteIn the first case, we were also going on the original poster’s description of a “classic” client that could be corrupted, or have been downloaded through a third party.
Checking further into this (with some other people) it is a false positive for ClientSdkMDNSHost. It’s quite common when sections of the game are updated for Antivirus engines to detect it as a virus until they are updated.
You should at least report this to Kaspersky as there’s nothing we can do about their detection systems.
