iTunes installer being blocked on Endpoints - Windows 7 clients

The iTunes installer (iTunes_Setup.exe) is being blocked as a potential PUA on my endpoints (version 10.3). 

I've add iTunes_Setup.exe in as a file exclusion in SEC (5.2.2), but it isn't working and it is still picked up.

Is there another way I can exlude this file from being blocked?

  • Hello IAMU,

    isn't being considered a "PUA"

    I beg to differ - Install Core Click Run Software is a PUA and from the analysis it doesn't look likely that the genuine iTunes installer would trigger this detection.

    Anyway, the academic discussion is not productive. I've already suggested that you send a sample but apparently I couldn't convince you :smileyhappy:.

    I'm a little reluctant to authorize such ...

    and rightly so

    but I need this file

    famous last words :smileywink:

    It shouldn't be flagged 

    right, if indeed it's coming from Apple themselves

    Clearly something is not as it should be. Either it's an incorrect (false positive) detection, or the file is not coming from Apple (even if you think so), or Apple have decided to beef up the installer. Won't speculate which is the most likely (even though I did not get the alert scanning - not running - the 12.0.1 installers for Windows). The best course of action is to send a sample to Labs - please do so.
