Hello everyone,
Recently, while checking my browsing history on Chrome, I came across a GitHub link (with two variants) that seems to be accessed systematically every time I use Chrome. I don't know what it's about and it seems very suspicious to me.
The links:

Hello,
The link points to a Github repo that no longer exists, but just the name... Not great.
Blackhole is one of the most popular toolkits. It contains malicious web applications designed to exploit vulnerabilities in browser plugins and other components in order to spread malware. These attack kits are used in the majority of web threats launched from compromised websites. It is even the main vector used to infect computers with malware.
Check your Chrome extensions, and I also see that BitDefender is not up to date :-(
You can also use the link below which is available on CCM:
Hello,
If I'm not mistaken, I don't see anything related to Bitdefender antivirus in the screenshot!
If you are referring to this in the screenshot!
In that case, I also don't see the connection with Bitdefender antivirus since this is Microsoft antivirus!
You can click on the Windows Security icon at the bottom right of the taskbar and proceed to update the virus definitions and then do a complete scan.
Also, consider resetting your browser.
Download ResetBrowser for free for PC - CCM
Caution: Backup Firefox and Chrome Bookmarks
Although the favorites are preserved, it is always safer to have a copy.
You can also run a scan with Norton Power Eraser, it is free and relatively effective in detecting various types of infections and neutralizing them.
It's possible that a security contributor may come to take a look at your request to see if a more thorough diagnosis is needed or not, we'll see!
