Microsoft Defender Flags Legitimate Google Search URLs as Malicious
Microsoft Defender for Office 365 has been incorrectly flagging legitimate Google search URLs as malicious, causing false security alerts for users.
The issue stems from the Safe Links feature, which is mistakenly blocking valid Google URLs instead of protecting against genuine threats.
According to Microsoft, it has identified the cause and is working on a fix, but no timeline for an official patch has been confirmed yet.
