Prof Rulle,

I believe you mean a false positive, don't you? A false negative would be a failure to report, but clearly ClamAV does detect this.

The proper way to report this would be to file a False Positive Report here: <https://www.clamav.net/reports/fp>. If you can also provide a hash value of file in question back here, that might speed up the process. Simply verifying one of these hash values from the VirusTotal report will work:

MD5
04267b6af9a1bad85d5cd6aecb1e4d28
SHA-1
cf7d73066f921fc7101c06aebc5e090cebffd2b2
SHA-256
7563a2b175d3c48069960e0290ac08e3f379cd74307e44c995df52d5dc6fc002

Hi, thank you for your great service to internet security!

A false negative report has been issued this week for Img.Exploit.CVE_2017_3049-6268090-0, see also the virus total report under [1].

The issue has to be handled under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Therefore I would politely like to ask for the evaluation state of that false negative report. 

Thanks in advance for your kind response.
