Troj-Warning

logopk opened this issue · 2 comments

Hi,

why does the tool install mimikatz on my system?

********************** Sophos Anti-Virus Alert ***********************
Threat "Troj/Mimikatz-Q" detected in file
"/tmp/pip-install-8xxnod7l/impacket/examples/mimikatz.py".

Access to the file has been denied

**********************************************************************

The tool doesn't install this. It is however part of the Impacket library that is used (it's made and maintained by someone else). You can safely remove mimikatz.py from the Impacket library, we do not use it in the tool.

Unfortunately the AntiVirus in my company alerted everyone that I downloaded it! Not nice!

Could you please put a warning in the README? I guess some more company security peaople will run into this trouble! Thanks!

Nevertheless the install of the requirements will fail and I can't go on.
