Magician is proprietary software from Samsung Electronics. There is no public source tree to compile. The honest check is to download the installer from 三星工具页面 and, if you are holding the exact Uptodown copy of 9.0.1.950, compare its SHA256.

That hash is Uptodown's hash for 9.0.1.950. It is not a hash for a 9.0.2 file. Inside the installed app, the Update button is how Samsung says you check whether your copy is current.
Samsung's FAQ and the Uptodown page we reviewed do not name a specific false positive from a named antivirus vendor. Do not treat a random download mirror as Samsung's file.
What Samsung does document: a full diagnostic scan can become very slow while Microsoft Defender real-time protection is on. Their guide offers a process exclusion for SamsungMagicianSVC.exe, or a temporary pause of real-time protection. Pausing protection reduces coverage until you turn it back on. The steps are in the Defender 指南.
固件更新 also shuts the PC down after 20 seconds. That behavior is in Samsung's limitation list. It is not, by itself, proof the installer is hostile.
