I'm at a loss too. I don't see anything at all to worry about in those
detections--ignore always should be the right choice.
Maybe this is time to use one of your two support incidents? Apparently,
you call 1-866-pcsafety, assuming you are in the United States or Canada.
Otherwise, call the number for paid support in your locale, and ask about
the two free support incidents for Windows Defender.
You could wait it out to see whether it ever completes whatever it thinks it
is doing, but I'm not sure what other intervention would help.
I'm a little worried about calling that number with this question--you might
be better off with an email support incident where you can show off those
detections, and maybe the staffer at the other end will get some sensible
advice before telling you how bad VNC is... However, I don't know how to
submit an email support incident for Windows Defender--I did some looking
around a few minutes ago, and wasn't able to find that information.
