Very weird, this is the TBB direct from Tor.

Trojan:Win32/Malgent!MTB

....Tor Browser\Browser\TorBrowser\Tor\tor.exe

And it links to : https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/wdsi/threats/malware-encyclopedia-description?name=Trojan%3AWin32%2FMalgent!MTB&threatid=2147836816

Anyone else having issues with TBB?

Yeah, I don't see the issue in the Tor Forum, but I see other people reporting it on Reddit.

I've verified the TBB signatures, its a authentic app from Tor.

Guess its another iteration of : https://support.torproject.org/tbb/antivirus-false-positive/

Just weird to see it from Windows Defender

I wouldn't call that weird. Microsoft's track record for anything involving security is absolutely atrocious, to a point where you now have to assume everything in azure and every single windows computer is compromised: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37702095
