[Added] Origin - App-Request

[OLLI_S]

Name of the app:

• Origin

File Path:

• C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin\Origin.exe

Developer:

• Electronic Arts Inc.

Website:

• https://www.origin.com/

Download Site:

• https://www.origin.com/store/download

App-Icon: in ICO format

Notes:

• The icon is available in 256 x 256 pixel, here in the forms a smaller version is displayed.
• Origin is a game client like Steam
• In the past Origin watched over all installed applications and sent too much data to EA, so I am only using it in my VM (so VulnDetect can find it)

Origin is now detected 4 times on my VM:

• C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin\Origin.exe
• C:\ProgramData\Origin\SelfUpdate\Staged\Origin.exe
• C:\Users\All Users\Origin\SelfUpdate\Staged\Origin.exe
• C:\Windows.old\Users\All Users\Origin\SelfUpdate\Staged\Origin.exe

For all 4 instances the version ? is shown.

@olli_s Yes, Origin is another case where we maintain that manually, should be updated

[OLLI_S]

When I extract the version information from C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin\Origin.exe then I get:

Product name:      Origin
Internal name:     Origin
Original filename: Origin.exe

File description:  Origin
Company:           Electronic Arts
Legal copyright:   Copyright (C) 2012
Comments:          

File version:      10,5,21,179
Product version:   10,5,21,179
Assembly version:  

If I go to Help -> Info then I get the version 10.5.21.179 - 0 shown.
So the extracted version info can be used, you just need to replace the , (comma) by . (dot).

I also extracted the version info from all other 3 instances, they show the same version number (so just use the version number from the EXE).

[Tom]

@olli_s Yes, that annoying comma. Since this is such a common issue, we will not deal with this on a per rule basis, but rather make something more generic for all programs. I've created an internal ticket for that improvement.

[OLLI_S]

Cool, so I mark this issue as solved.
