Is File Project [Cash Flow].xlsm.xlsx safe?
No engine detected a threat in this spreadsheet, though its very recent appearance and lack of runtime analysis justify normal document-opening precautions.
None of 75 antivirus engines flagged the spreadsheet, including all 17 reporting tier-1 engines, and no external-intelligence match was found. Because it is newly observed and has no completed sandbox analysis, open it only if its source and expected contents are known.

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.
None of 75 antivirus engines flagged the spreadsheet, including all 17 reporting tier-1 engines, and no external-intelligence match was found. Because it is newly observed and has no completed sandbox analysis, open it only if its source and expected contents are known.
The strongest evidence is broad non-detection: 0 of 75 engines reported malicious or suspicious content, while 17 tier-1 engines reported no detection. MalwareBazaar, CIRCL, and YARAify supplied no corroborating threat match. Signing is not meaningful for this spreadsheet format, so the absence of a signature carries no negative weight. The sample is newly observed with only one submission, which limits confidence based on reputation. No sandbox run was completed, and no complete contacted-host reputation result is available, so runtime behavior cannot be characterized. Three previous spreadsheet cases received clean assessments, although their file-type-only similarity is weak supporting evidence.
What We Detected
None of 75 antivirus engines flagged the spreadsheet, and tier1Malicious=0. All 17 reporting tier-1 engines, including Microsoft, Kaspersky, BitDefender, ESET-NOD32, and Avast, returned no detection. MalwareBazaar, CIRCL, and YARAify also produced no matching threat intelligence.
Threat Behavior
No completed sandbox observation is available because behaviour=null. contactedHosts=null also means no complete reputation check of possible network contacts was recorded, so runtime actions and no complete contacted-host reputation result was available or malicious. The detected format is an Office Open XML spreadsheet, while the filename contains a macro-related double extension; this is not independently malicious but merits caution.
What To Do Now
Confirm that the document came from an expected sender before opening it. Keep endpoint protection enabled, use Protected View, and do not enable macros or external content unless the document's source and purpose are independently verified.
Where this verdict could be wrong3 caveats
- prevalence.classification=rare_new and file.ageDays=0 mean the sample has little history, so present-day non-detection is not conclusive.
- behaviour=null and contactedHosts=null leave runtime actions and network destinations unverified.
- The filename ends in '.xlsm.xlsx'; although the detected type is XLSX, the macro-related wording warrants caution when opening an unsolicited document.
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 engines reported malicious or suspicious content.
- tier1Malicious=0 and tier1ReportedClean=17.
- externalIntel.yaraify.ruleCount=0 and externalIntel.malwareBazaar.hit=false.
- No malicious dropped child was reported.
- similarHashes contains 3/3 prior safe spreadsheet verdicts, although only by file type.
- file.ageDays=0 and prevalence.timesSubmitted=1 provide little historical reputation.
- behaviour=null leaves document runtime behavior unobserved.
- contactedHosts=null means no complete host-reputation result is available.
- The filename contains the unusual double extension '.xlsm.xlsx'.
Open only if the sender and purpose are expected, preferably in Protected View. Keep security protection enabled and reject any prompt to enable macros or external content unless independently verified.
