The latest Nightly build of VRCX is being flagged by Microsoft Defender as malware. I assume this has to do with recent changes to implement world persistence over a local IP, as the message given in MS Defender refer to "executing commands from an attacker"

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Install the latest Nightly build of VRCX (2023-06-07
  2. Installation gets blocked by Windows
