What to do and what to do when the Google Search Console page experience says “Security issue detected”

Thank you for visiting. This page is an English translation of the Japanese site [Knowledge Base] using Google Translate. Please understand that there are some points that are difficult to read, such as sentences and expressions.

If there is a warning on Google’s tools in the world, I’m a little excited even if I do nothing (isn’t it?).

This time, when I opened the page experience of Search Console, a warning “A security problem was detected” suddenly appeared. And at the bottom of the page, it says, “Due to a serious problem, we couldn’t count good URLs accurately. The actual percentage of good URLs may be lower than the number on the screen.”

Then, as shown in the image above, there is a link button called “Modify”, so when I clicked on it, the following screen was displayed.

In the location “1 issue detected”, “We have detected that there is more than one page affected by the warning. The warning labels your page or site on your browser as a warning. It may, but it doesn’t affect how your site looks in Google search results. “

And when I open it with the words “Uncommon Downloads” below, I get a “Uncommon Downloads” warning for some or all of the downloads on this site. “, And the URL example is” Not applicable “.

It’s quite difficult to understand English tools that are translated into Japanese, not just Google, but how about not being applicable while saying one problem? It’s like that.

If you click the detailed link, it will be written as follows.

The site is delivering content that is not yet recognized by Google Safe Browsing. Chrome browsers may display a warning message that the file is generally not downloaded and can be dangerous. These warnings are automatically cleared when Google Safe Browsing confirms the safety of your files. Note that you may not see the URL example for this issue.

This issue doesn’t exclude pages or sites from Google search results, but it does warn your Chrome browser the first time a user requests to download an unknown file.

I see, it’s judged to be dangerous by Google Safe Browsing. With that said, Google Safe immediately verified it with his browsing, but it turned out to be “no problem”.

Furthermore, even if I used a tool called virustotal that came out when I searched variously on the net, it was still judged that there was no problem.

If there was any problem, I had to fix it, so I clicked “Fix”, but the page that came out was as follows.

However, the verification result of Google Safe Browsing has a date before May 20, 2021 when you notice the warning as shown in the image above (that is, the result is not real time). I was a little worried, but I believed that there was no problem with virustotal, so I decided to request a review.

Did you fix it by clicking the “Fix” link button? However, there is nothing I can do, so I requested a review on the night of May 21, 2021 as follows.

“Security problem” page-> “Uncommon download” item “URL example” was not applicable, so I investigated using the following security check tool, but the problem No points were found.

Therefore, we have not made any corrections, so we would appreciate it if you could point out any specific problems.

It’s been less than a day, so it’s unclear what will happen, but I’ll add the results again.

Only two days after requesting the examination, the examination passed successfully and the warning display disappeared.

I received the following email about the result of the examination (excerpt).

There was “Show policy” in the body of the email, but it wasn’t a link, so I looked it up and it looks like this page.

Unwanted software policy

The point that I have in mind after reading this is that on this site, I distribute the WordPress theme [ha-Basic] that I made and distribute, and in terms of date, I may distribute these. I have the impression that it was falsely detected when I created the subdirectory site of.

I’m glad I was able to solve it safely.
