Why we think so
3 points against it and 3 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.
The reasoning behind this verdict
None of the 60 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the archive, including 18 major antivirus engines, and no malware-specific external match was found. Confidence is tempered because no sandbox run completed, so the behavior of files inside the archive was not observed.
The static scan contains no detections from any of 76 engines, including no major flags or family consensus. Malware-specific rule services and known-sample sources also produced no matches. The file was first submitted about 1,070 days ago, reducing concern associated with an archive, though only seven submissions are recorded. No completed sandbox run is available, so behavior in the test run and extracted payloads cannot be characterized. The host-reputation cross-check was not available, but no sample contacts were observed because execution did not occur.
What We Detected
None of the 60 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the RAR archive as malicious or suspicious. Malware-specific rule and known-sample checks also returned no matches.
Threat Behavior
No sandbox run completed, so there is no observation from the test run of extracted files, processes, persistence, or network activity. The recorded WinRAR theme-related registry paths do not establish activity by the archived content. A complete contacted-host reputation result is also unavailable.
What To Do Now
If the archive came from an expected source, extract it only with security software enabled and scan the extracted files before opening them. Treat unexpected executables, scripts, password prompts, or requests to disable security software as warning signs.
Where this verdict could be wrong3 caveats
- No completed sandbox run examined the archive's behavior in the test run or any extracted contents.
- The archive has only seven recorded submissions, so broad prevalence does not support the assessment.
- No complete reputation cross-check is available for contacted hosts, although no runtime contacts were observed because no sandbox run completed.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- None of the 60 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the archive.
- No malware-specific rule or known-sample intelligence matched the file.
- The archive was first observed about 1,070 days ago rather than appearing recently.
- No completed sandbox run observed what the archive contains or how extracted files behave.
- Only seven submissions are recorded, providing limited prevalence support.
- A complete reputation check for contacted hosts is unavailable.
