Is pkgi-pc safe?
No engine among 75 flagged this ELF file, and its moderate submission history has produced no corroborating malware intelligence or family identification.
All 75 antivirus engines avoided flagging this ELF file, including 17 tier-1 engines, and no external intelligence source identified a malware family. Runtime behavior was not observed, however, so this conclusion primarily reflects strong static-scan agreement and moderate prevalence.

Before opening
Open it only when its sender or download source is one you independently trust.
If you already opened it
Keep normal device protection enabled and stop if the file behaves unexpectedly.

The reasoning behind this verdict
This section explains the evidence supporting the verdict and keeps conflicting or missing signals visible.
All 75 antivirus engines avoided flagging this ELF file, including 17 tier-1 engines, and no external intelligence source identified a malware family. Runtime behavior was not observed, however, so this conclusion primarily reflects strong static-scan agreement and moderate prevalence.
The sample produced zero malicious or suspicious detections across 75 antivirus engines. All 17 participating tier-1 engines, including Kaspersky, Microsoft, ESET-NOD32, and BitDefender, reported no detection. It has appeared in 57 submissions from 56 sources over 124 days without accumulating threat labels or researcher-rule matches. Code signing is not meaningful for this ELF file type, so its unsigned state carries no negative weight. No sandbox execution completed, and no complete host-reputation result is available, limiting conclusions about runtime behavior.
What We Detected
No antivirus engine among 75 flagged the sample as malicious or suspicious. Seventeen tier-1 engines, including BitDefender, ESET-NOD32, Kaspersky, and Microsoft, reported no detection, and no engine supplied a malware-family label.
Threat Behavior
No completed sandbox run is available because behaviour.sandboxCount=0, so runtime behavior cannot be characterized. The lone listed technique, T1497.001, is categorized as ambient rather than offensive evidence. No complete contacted-host reputation result is available.
What To Do Now
The static evidence supports ordinary use if the file came from the expected project or distribution channel. Keep endpoint protection enabled, verify the download source and SHA-256 hash, and use a restricted environment if provenance is uncertain.
Where this verdict could be wrong2 caveats
- behaviour.sandboxCount=0 means execution was not observed, leaving runtime-only activity untested.
- contactedHosts=null means no completed host-reputation cross-check is available.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- 0/75 antivirus engines reported a malicious or suspicious result.
- All 17 tier-1 engines reported no detection.
- No MalwareBazaar or YARAify match was found.
- The file has 57 submissions from 56 sources over 124 days without detections.
- No malicious dropped child was identified.
- No completed sandbox execution was available.
- No complete contacted-host reputation cross-check was available.
- The file has no applicable publisher-signature assurance.
Use the file only if it came from the expected project or repository, and keep endpoint protection enabled. For high-assurance use, verify its SHA-256 hash with the publisher or distribution channel.

What to do now
This file appears low risk based on the evidence available now.
- Recovery step 01
Open it only when its sender or download source is one you independently trust.
- Recovery step 02
A clean result reduces known risk, but it cannot guarantee that every new or targeted threat has been detected.
- Recovery step 03
Keep your antivirus and Windows updates switched on so you stay protected.
