Why we think so
4 points against it and 5 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.
The reasoning behind this verdict
Only 1 of the 62 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the executable, and that was a generic machine-learning result from a less reliable engine; no major antivirus engines detected it. The signature failed verification, so it offers no assurance, but the available sandbox evidence showed no named injection target or other high-risk artefact.
Trapmine was the only engine to flag the file, producing a generic machine-learning label, while no major antivirus engines detected it. This isolated pattern is much more consistent with a false positive than with established malware. The signature claiming Arnis failed verification because its chain ends in an untrusted root, so the claimed identity cannot be trusted as publisher evidence. No malware-specific community rule, public sample-database listing, malicious child, or named malware family corroborated the lone detection, although our static analysis and a complete contacted-host reputation check were unavailable.
What We Detected
Only 1 of the 62 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the executable. Trapmine supplied a generic machine-learning result; no major antivirus engines detected the file, and no engine identified a real malware family.
Threat Behavior
The combined sandbox summary contained mappings commonly assigned without supporting artefacts. It recorded no named process-injection target, no persistence indicator, and no malicious sandbox verdict. The sole observed IP contact was identified as analysis-environment background traffic rather than activity attributable to the sample. No complete contacted-host reputation result is available.
Trust and Limitations
The signature claims Arnis, but verification failed because the certificate chain ends in an untrusted root. It therefore does not authenticate the publisher. Our static analysis of the uploaded bytes was unavailable, so the conclusion rests on antivirus, runtime, and external-intelligence evidence.
What To Do Now
Obtain the executable from the project's official release channel and compare its SHA-256 before running it. Keep security software enabled, especially because the file's publisher signature cannot be validated.
Where this verdict could be wrong3 caveats
- The executable's signature could not be validated because its certificate chain ends at an untrusted root, so its claimed publisher identity provides no assurance.
- Only nine sources submitted the file, which is not broad prevalence.
- Our static analysis of the uploaded bytes was not available, and no complete contacted-host reputation result 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.
- No major antivirus engines detected the executable.
- The available evidence from the test run recorded no named injection target, persistence indicator, or malicious sandbox verdict.
- No malware-specific community rules or public malware-sample database listing matched the hash.
- No inspected child carried a malicious or suspicious verdict.
- The executable did not show high-entropy code or evidence of packing.
- The executable's publisher signature failed verification because its certificate chain ends at an untrusted root.
- Trapmine produced one generic machine-learning detection.
- The file was submitted by only nine sources, so it lacks broad prevalence.
- Our static inspection of the uploaded bytes and a complete contacted-host reputation check were unavailable.
