i was mainly asking how to fix this, not so much as report it

That is how you fix a False Positive detection … you tell avast lab about it so they can fix (adjust detection signature)

simple, i go into protection >> firewall then where it says “apps recently managed by your firewall” and shows it was “blocked”

Which Avast…? (Free/Pro/IS/Premier)
Other security related software installed…?
