ESET Thinks my C++ code with libcurl is a Trojan

I'm writing an application that goes through different powershell commands and sends the output to an Api in php.
Since today, ESET thinks that my code is a Trojan. I found out that it's because I use the curl library:

    // Initialize cURL session
    CURLcode res;
    CURL* curl;
    curl_global_init(CURL_GLOBAL_ALL);
    curl = curl_easy_init();
    if (curl)
    {
        curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_URL, "https://link.to.my/api/api.php");
        curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, jsonString.c_str());
        curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDSIZE_LARGE, jsonString.size());
        curl_easy_setopt(curl, CURLOPT_VERBOSE, 1L);
        res = curl_easy_perform(curl);
        curl_easy_cleanup(curl);
    }
    curl_global_cleanup();

To be precise, it's Win64/Agent_AGen.ACN threat.
My operating system is Windows 10, if that's important.

Thanks for the heads-up. The detection created by an automated mechanism has been removed.

It works again. I have no idea if it's because I did something, you did something, or it was just a bug?
