Bitdefender has flagged two files from the db48 MacPorts port installed in my Mac, namely
/opt/local/lib/db48/libdb_cxx-4.8.dylib
/opt/local/var/macports/software/db48/db48-4.8.30_4.darwin_17.x86_64.tbz2
which seem to be infected by something called
Gen:Variant.Application.MAC.Koiot.575
Does this sound plausible, or is it more likely a false positive? In any case, I am thinking of reinstalling the port. Is this possible, and how should I proceed? (uninstall first, perhaps, but what about dependents?).
Thanks for your help,
P.S.
Here’s what ls reports about this files:
-rwxr-xr-x 1 macports admin 1302356 Sep 27 2017 /opt/local/lib/db48/libdb_cxx-4.8.dylib
-rw-r--r-- 1 macports wheel 19951871 Mar 15 2018 /opt/local/var/macports/software/db48/db48-4.8.30_4.darwin_17.x86_64.tbz2
