Suspicious

Signed Outbyte Camomile installer flagged as PUA/grayware by DrWeb and CrowdStrike, with process injection and direct IP behavior, but contacts vendor site and lacks strong malware consensus.

The verdict, reasoned out.

Not a rules engine. The MT AI Engine reads every signal we collected, weighs them against history, and commits to an answer.

Reasoning

Low detection count (2/71) dominated by PUA/grayware labels aligns with security-tool-like filename and classifier heuristic. Verified signature from Outbyte, a known optimizer vendor, but limited signer history raises mild concern. Behavioral signals like T1055 injection and direct IPs are suspicious yet contextualized by legitimate vendor contacts and no malicious runtime outcomes. Absence of tier-1 malware consensus, clean children/hosts, and medium prevalence support PUA over threat. Overall mixed signals warrant caution without clear malicious intent.

Key signals · 5

Each signal cites a concrete token from the evidence the arbiter saw — engine name, MITRE technique, signer string, or an exact count.

Points in its favour
  • Verified code signature
  • Contacts only outbyte.com
  • 16 tier-1 engines clean
  • Security tool filename pattern
  • Medium prevalence, no malicious children
Points against
  • PUA detection by DrWeb (tier1)
  • Process injection (T1055)
  • Direct IP contacts without DNS
  • Suspicious generic signer CN
  • Limited signer history (1 sample)
What to do

Treat as potentially unwanted; uninstall via Add/Remove Programs if not intentionally installed. Verify source before re-downloading from outbyte.com.

  • ProcessInjectionhigh

    MITRE T1055 (Process Injection) observed — CreateRemoteThread / APC / reflective-DLL injection. The payload is being smuggled into a legitimate process to bypass AV hooks.

    Evidence
    "C:\Users\<USER>\Desktop\outbyte-camomile-setup.exe"
  • DirectIpC2medium

    Sample contacted 2 external IP address(es) and zero domains. Benign software virtually always uses DNS; no-DNS direct-IP C2 is a strong malware indicator because it bypasses reputation systems and dodges domain-based blocklists.

Files are processed in a streaming pass-through — MalwareTips never stores the binary on its servers. Only the scan result (hash, detections, verdict) is retained so the next person who scans the same file gets an instant answer. If you ran this file on your computer and are worried, scan your system with an up-to-date antivirus and change critical passwords from a different device.
