Why we think so
1 point against it and 3 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.
The reasoning behind this verdict
All 72 antivirus engines that checked it returned clean results including 18 major antivirus engines. Sandbox analysis showed no malicious verdicts.
The file triggered zero malicious detections from any engine tier. Sandbox execution produced only techniques common in legitimate software and wrote expected configuration and cache files without persistence or malicious files it created. While one of our behaviour rules flagged eight direct-IP contacts without DNS resolution, this pattern alone does not override the unanimous clean engine consensus and medium prevalence over 1148 days. No external intelligence sources returned hits. The unsigned status is noted but does not elevate risk given the absence of any malicious indicators.
What We Detected
72 of the 72 antivirus engines that checked it reported the sample; none flagged it malicious or suspicious. 18 major antivirus engines explicitly returned clean. Sandbox execution recorded nine MITRE techniques common in legitimate software and wrote configuration and DirectX cache files typical of an emulator or game-related binary named xenia.exe.
Threat Behavior
No offensive techniques, no persistence mechanisms, and no malicious files it created were observed. Eight direct IP addresses were contacted without corresponding domain lookups, triggering a medium-severity heuristic, yet no control servers or data exfiltration was confirmed by sandbox verdicts or external intelligence.
What To Do Now
The file can be executed in an isolated environment if its purpose (Xbox 360 emulator) is expected. Monitor for unusual outbound traffic and consider signing or obtaining from an official source for added assurance.
Where this verdict could be wrong2 caveats
- Direct-IP contacts without DNS could indicate a control server evasion, but the complete absence of detections, sandbox malice, and dropped malicious files it created makes malicious intent unlikely.
- Unsigned status removes any trusted-publisher safety net, yet 1148-day age and medium prevalence without external-intel hits argue against active threat.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- Zero malicious detections across all engine tiers
- Clean sandbox verdict and no malicious files it created
- Medium prevalence with 1148-day history and no external-intel hits
- Unsigned executable
