Harmful, detrimental (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

adverse

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'harmful' is the first definition.
(synonyms)

'detrimental' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

(Other definitions for adverse that I've seen before include "Unfavourable to evaders" , "'Contrary, untoward (7)'" , "Opposed to or unfavourable" , "Evaders being harmful" , "negative result" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
