Malsilo false positive?
Here’s where to start.
MalSilo's official project website links the maintainer's public X profile. A dedicated appeal form or email was not found, and acceptance of false-positive requests through the profile is unconfirmed.

How to request a review
Website / URL review
MalSilo's official project website links the maintainer's public X profile. A dedicated appeal form or email was not found, and acceptance of false-positive requests through the profile is unconfirmed.
- Check the public maintainer profile linked from the project website for an available contact option.
- Ask which channel accepts MalSilo correction requests before sending sensitive information. Suggested context: the exact indicator, the VirusTotal report link, and the reason you believe the listing is mistaken.
- If the account offers no usable contact option, there is no verified appeal route in this directory.
- Only a maintainer profile was verified. No public email, dedicated form or documented false-positive workflow was found in the reviewed official sources.
- A GitHub issue tracker for the maintainer's separate malware-sample repository is not established as a MalSilo appeal channel.
Scope & contact notes
- The second review confirmed a traceable maintainer profile but found no dedicated form, public email or documented false-positive workflow. Public profiles are excluded from current contact totals.
