3 points against it and 5 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.

The reasoning behind this verdict

Analyst conclusion

Cynet alone flagged the DLL, while the other 74 of the 70 antivirus engines that checked it did not, including all reporting major engines. Its history spans 117 submitters since it was first seen on Mar 25, 2014, and the sandbox evidence does not substantiate process injection, making the isolated detection likely a false positive.

Where this verdict could be wrong3 caveats
  • The DLL is unsigned and UPX-packed, which makes its contents less transparent and warrants obtaining it from a trusted source.
  • The sandbox summary recorded two IP contacts, but no complete host-reputation assessment is available.
  • Our static analysis was not available, so the packed contents were not independently examined.

These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
