Why we think so
1 point against it and 3 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.
The reasoning behind this verdict
68 engines reported; only Trapmine (low_trust) flagged it. No major detections, no malicious sandbox verdict, and prevalence shows 236 submitters in one day. One of our behaviour rules is noted but outweighed by the overall clean profile.
The file is a fresh widely seen but new installer (geode-installer-v5.8.2-win.exe) with high submission volume but zero malicious detections from major antivirus engines. Signing is absent and one less reliable engine produced a generic ML score. Similar-hash RAG returned no prior verdicts and external intel is silent. The combination fits the less reliable-engines-only pattern with high false-positive likelihood.
What We Detected
74 engines scanned the 48 MB Win32 EXE; 68 reported with only Trapmine returning a less reliable malicious.moderate.ml.score. All 17 major antivirus engines remained clean. The sample is unsigned and shows typical NSIS-style temp-file extraction in sandbox runs.
Threat Behavior
One sandbox observed T1134 (access token manipulation) alongside 19 techniques common in legitimate software. Contacted a single IP (162.159.36.2) with no domains, triggering one of our behaviour rules. Four files it created were inspected and none flagged malicious. No persistence, control-server domains, or malicious hosts in cache.
What To Do Now
Run the installer in a controlled environment if the source is trusted. Monitor for unexpected network activity. Re-scan after any updates from the publisher.
Where this verdict could be wrong1 caveat
- If the single less reliable ML detection reflects a genuine new installer pattern, one of our behaviour rules could indicate suspicious behaviour despite major silence.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- Zero malicious detections from major antivirus engines
- High submission volume (widely seen but new)
