Rust installer is shown as malicious in virustotal


I downloaded the rust installer from the official website and checked it on virustotal. I'm already a rust user so, I know its safe. I just wanted to inform about this

It's marked as malicious by three quite poor AV engines, I think rust community doesn't need to worry at this moment.

It's a known problem:
