SmarterMail 9420 installer detected as virus

When I tried to download SmarterMail_9420.exe, Windows Defender blocked it and said it contains Trojan:Win32/Wacatac.B!ml virus.

Is this false positive or the installer is infected?

Defender doesn't find anything with my copy.

MS Defender also blocked my download ( Trojan:Win32/Wacatac.B!ml ):

SentinelOne does not detect as problematic (running on my device)

Tried another computer with freshly updated defender, and it shows clean.
