This could very well be a False Positive . . . . Or a new malware threat.
Since this is a "heuristic" detection, your AV is flagging it because it demonstrates similarities and characteristics common to malware.
I suggest you have your AV block or quarantine this.
Better yet, I suggest you post your concerns in the Kaspersky Forum - They could help you much more directly:
