Why we think so
3 points against it and 5 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.
The reasoning behind this verdict
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.
The strongest signal is the antivirus result: only 1 of the 70 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the file, and that detection came from a less reliable engine with no named malware family. All 18 reporting major engines remained silent, and there is no corroborating malicious sandbox verdict. The file also has broad, long-standing prevalence, with 117 distinct submitters and a first-seen date of Mar 25, 2014. Although the DLL is unsigned and UPX-packed, those properties are not proof of malware. A label was recorded without any named injection target, so it does not establish that process injection occurred. Two IP contacts warrant caution because no complete reputation result is available, but they do not outweigh the broader benign evidence.
What We Detected
Only Cynet flagged the DLL, producing 1 detection out of 75 engines. The remaining engines did not flag it, including all 18 reporting major engines, and no engine identified a real malware family.
Threat Behavior
The sandbox summary included a T1055 label, but it recorded no process targeted for injection, so that label does not demonstrate actual process injection. Two IP contacts were observed, although a complete reputation assessment for those hosts is not available. No malicious sandbox verdict or malicious dropped file was recorded.
Additional Context
The DLL is unsigned and compressed with UPX, with high-entropy code. These traits can conceal code and justify caution, but they are also found in legitimate software. The sample has substantial history across 117 distinct submitters and was first seen on Mar 25, 2014, which weighs strongly against the isolated detection.
What To Do Now
Use the DLL only if it came from the expected software package or another trusted source. Keep security software enabled and rescan if the file changes or begins producing unexpected network or application behavior.
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.
- Only 1 of the 70 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the file, and the sole detection came from a less reliable engine.
- All 18 reporting major engines remained silent.
- The sample has been submitted by 117 distinct sources and was first seen on Mar 25, 2014.
- No malicious sandbox verdict or corroborated process-injection target was recorded.
- No inspected dropped file was identified as malicious.
- The DLL is unsigned.
- The executable code is compressed with UPX and has high entropy.
- The sandbox summary recorded two IP contacts whose reputations were not fully assessed.

Signatures and behavior heuristics
A community signature or high-severity behavioral heuristic matched. Signatures identify known patterns; heuristics are strong leads but are not proof on their own.
VirusTotal's sandbox summary maps this run to MITRE T1055 (Process Injection), but no injected process of the sample's own was recorded (the analysis VM's own WMI adapter, crash handlers and Chrome updater are not counted). VirusTotal maps T1055 on about half of all files no engine flags, so the mapping alone is not evidence of injection.
EvidenceT1055 (sandbox MITRE mapping)Unsigned, packed PE with sandbox-observed network activity. The packing step hides the payload until execution; the network call fetches / reports for the next stage. Classic dropper / stager behaviour.
Evidence13.64.90.137
Section entropy & packers
Executable sections have high entropy (7.2+) — the code is compressed or encrypted and only decrypted at runtime. Classic packing behaviour.
Packers compress or encrypt the executable and only unpack it at runtime. Legitimate commercial software uses them too — but if the file is also unsigned and rare, it's a strong malware signal.
How widely this file has been seen
Widely seen in the wild for a long time. High prior this is legitimate; isolated detections on common-old files are usually false positives.
