Why we think so
3 points against it and 5 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.
The reasoning behind this verdict
APEX was the sole detector among 75 engines, and none of the higher-trust engines flagged the executable. Completed sandbox runs showed installer activity without a malicious verdict, named injection target, hostile network contact, or other high-risk behavior, making the isolated detection likely a false positive.
The antivirus result is dominated by one less reliable generic detection from APEX, while all reporting higher-trust engines remained silent. Completed sandbox runs showed the executable installing and launching GraphicsGale components, with no malicious sandbox verdict or named injection target. The mapping is not supported by an injection artefact and therefore does not establish process injection. No malware-specific community rules, public malware-sample listing, malicious child, packing, or brand conflict reinforced the detection. The unsigned status reduces provenance assurance, but it does not outweigh the broad lack of corroboration.
What We Detected
APEX was the only engine to flag the executable: 1 of the 69 antivirus engines that checked it. None of the reporting higher-trust engines, including Kaspersky, ESET, BitDefender, Fortinet and Avast, produced a detection, and no engine identified a real malware family.
Threat Behavior
Completed sandbox runs showed installation activity associated with GraphicsGale and returned no malicious verdict. A T1055 technique label appeared, but no target process was recorded, so the evidence does not demonstrate process injection. The only observed IP contact was identified as analysis-environment background traffic rather than sample activity. No malicious child, persistence indicator, packing, malware-specific rule, or public malware-sample listing provided corroboration.
What To Do Now
The isolated APEX result is most consistent with a false positive. Keep security software enabled and, if provenance matters, obtain the installer again from the software publisher's official distribution channel before running it.
Where this verdict could be wrong3 caveats
- APEX labeled the executable malicious, although no higher-trust engine corroborated that result.
- The executable is unsigned, so publisher identity cannot provide an additional authenticity check.
- A complete reputation check was not saved for the observed network address, although that address was identified as analysis-environment background traffic.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- Only 1 of the 69 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the file, and the sole detector was less reliable.
- All reporting higher-trust engines produced no detection.
- Completed sandbox runs returned no malicious verdict and recorded no named injection target.
- No malware-specific rules or public malware-sample database entries matched the hash.
- The executable was not identified as packed and contained no high-entropy code.
- The executable has no verified publisher signature.
- APEX produced a generic malicious detection.
- No complete host-reputation result was saved for the observed address.
