Nothing against the name, but for the laity is a bad reference, see https://www.kaspersky.com/cyber-crime-lazarus-swift (https://www.kaspersky.com/cyber-crime-lazarus-swift).

Oh,well...

I have send an email to a contact there at Kaspersky.

Anyway: Lazarus is not a unique entity.

Yes, embeded debug information uses some technics and structs that are detected by heuristic antivirus algorithms as virus.  Can't do anything with it.
