Avast clients and Microsoft Distributed File System (DFS)

Has anyone experienced similar problems?

We use Microsoft DFS pretty often within our customer networks.

Both Avast ransomware and behavior shield seem to have a problem with those path in a way that the Avast client is detecting DFS path with a randome number. This would result in detection path like:

Ransomware shield:
App: \DFSCLIENT;M:000000000008DF59\customerdomain.LOKAL\DFS\foldername1\applicationname2.exe
App: \DFSCLIENT;M:000000000008A61A\customerdomain.LOKAL\DFS\foldername1\applicationname2.exe

Behavior shield:
App: \DFSCLIENT;M:00000000035672AE\customerdomain.LOKAL\DFS\foldername1\applicationname2.exe

In all 3 cases the correct UNC path would be \customerdomain.LOKAL\DFS\foldername1\applicationname2.exe in case the DFS path is a domain based DFS, which we often use.

We deal with 80 Hub customer/tenants with more than 3.000 avast clients and almost 80% of them are using DFS!

I already have a case open regarding behavior shield not working with path exclusions. But this topic here is either related to this or it is a problem for itself…

Can anyone confirm this problem?
