Questions & answers

Short answers to the 6 questions people ask most about this file.

Is cli.tgz safe?
We found nothing harmful in cli.tgz. None of the 54 antivirus engines that checked it flag it. Open it only if you trust the person or website you got it from.
What is cli.tgz?
cli.tgz is a ZIP archive, about 56.2 kB. VirusTotal first saw it on Sep 2, 2026.
How many antivirus engines detected cli.tgz?
None of the 54 antivirus engines that checked it flag cli.tgz. That is a good sign, but not proof, so we also weigh who made it, how widely it is used and what it did in a test run.
What is the SHA-256 hash of cli.tgz?
The SHA-256 fingerprint of cli.tgz is 12f7ffe1a7c0e24f4378d69ef4cf368006bd0d3713fec7ac394f1337d62a7720, and its MD5 is 92fb62f1f8774883323f622bb5f62f52. Two files with the same SHA-256 are identical, so use it to check you have exactly this file, not just one with the same name.
Is it safe to open or extract cli.tgz?
We found nothing harmful in cli.tgz. The main caveat is where you got it: attackers sometimes spread malware under the name of real software, so get it from the official website. If your own antivirus warns about it, check the source before you ignore the warning.
How up to date is this analysis of cli.tgz?
This report reflects the scan on Sep 2, 2026. A file's fingerprint never changes, but antivirus engines keep learning, so a rating can change later. To get a newer result, scan the file again: we refresh the antivirus results when the saved ones are out of date.
