​Yes, it should be reported as a bug to microsoft (don't know how to do
that though).

Although it is easy to see this as a "strategic move" from MS, it is also
very possible that it is just the result of some heuristics; no doubt they
(MS) have seen quite a few version of the soffice.bin file since
LibreOffice have a lot of version around simultaneously.

There's also the remote possibility that a real trojan stepped in and
infected the file. Uninstalling, checking the system and reinstalling might
fix this, but hopefully this isn't the case.
