Brief description of your issue

The last two release CI runs for the Anchor.cli package failed due to "Validation-Defender-Error". I have been able to install manually by running winget install --manifest . and ran a windows defender scan on the directory containing the binary, but there was no issue detected.

It looks like most other (possible all) open PRs with the "Validation Defender Error" label are also Go programs build with a recent release of Go. Could this security scanner be triggering all Go binaries?

Research direction

Start by comparing the failed validation runs referenced in #177862 and #175317 with the open pull requests carrying the Validation-Defender-Error label. Reproduce the difference between winget install --manifest . and the CI validation path; done means the cause of the security-check failures is established and a successful validation path is identified.
