<p>As of April 2025 browsers appear to be flagging the ZAP downloads as potentially dangerous.</p>
<p>This appears to be the &lsquo;fault&rsquo; of the <a href="https://issues.chromium.org/issues/410883065">Google SafeBrowsing service</a>.</p>
<p>Exactly why ZAP has been flagged in this way is unclear, but to date we have not been able to convince anyone to change this.
The recommendation in the above issue (&ldquo;host your own downloads&rdquo;) are not a practical option for us.</p>

&lt;p&gt;In particular the &lt;a href=&#34;/docs/desktop/addons/active-scan-rules/&#34;&gt;Active Scan Rule add-on&lt;/a&gt; is often flagged: v65 was

&lt;p&gt;Detecting viruses is hard, especially as viruses try to disguise themselves.
This means that AV tools try to detect potentially malicious activity or code.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
