Description Carlo Bertelli 2024-01-31 13:17:57 UTC
Description:
If I sign a PDF with a certificate or even try to sign it, the file seems infected with CXmail/PDFPh-C virus.
I'm fairly sure it's a false positive, but Google refuses to send the file.
If I print to a pdf file, it works well without any issue.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a file with Writer
2. Export to PDF and choose the signing tab
3. Try to open a certificate
4. Export

Actual Results:
The file seems good, but GMail complains that the file is infected with CXmail/PDFPh-C virus

Expected Results:
A "clean" file


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes

I have since upgraded to version 24.2.0.3 and the issue seems resolved.
I will try to find an "infected" file made with version 7.5 (every version I tried showed the same behaviour), if I find it (I deleted all the "infected" versions).

Ok, it was probably Gmail fixing their false positive.
