This is more of an informational notice than an issue.
If you copy the hello world example and name it anything with hello or world in it, Microsoft Windows 11 Antivirus Engine will detect it as one of various Trojan viruses.
This is the case for any executable named hello or world. I doubt that it's even scanning the file, just going off of the name.
