create-1.19.2-0.5.0.i.jar falsely flagged by Windows Defender when inside a compressed zip file

So while compressing a few jars into a file to send to my friend so he could test out a compilation of mods i gathered so he wouldn't have to painstakingly download every single one via CurseForge.
Windows Defender randomly stepped in and detected said folder as a "Trojan:Script/Wacatac.B!ml", I decided to see which file could have been causing said issue (having a feeling it wasn't WinRAR forging a trojan itself) by deleting each file one-by-one.
For some unusual reason it ceased triggering windows defender when i deleted "create-1.19.2-0.5.0.i.jar" from the folder after having compressed it.
My best guess is that this is a false flag as I did download the file from CurseForge itself, and searching up online yielded no result to said issue except for something else that was unrelated. (NOTE: Windows Defender only flagged it when i made it into a ZIP folder via WinRAR, it had zero issues when it was a standard folder).
How did you fix it internally? Does it have something to do with jarjar? Having the same problem with my own mod.
