The reasoning behind this verdict

Analyst conclusion

All 64 antivirus engines that checked it returned clean results and the single sandbox run produced no malicious verdict. The three triggered rules explicitly note that the observed mappings do not prove malicious intent.

Where this verdict could be wrong1 caveat
  • triggeredHeuristics surfaced high-severity one of our behaviour rules mapping, but the rule itself states it does not prove malicious intent or exact method.

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

Questions & answers

Short answers to the 6 questions people ask most about this file.

Is this PDF document safe?
We found nothing harmful in this PDF document. None of the 64 antivirus engines that checked it flag it. Open it only if you trust the person or website it came from.
What is this PDF document?
This PDF document is about 46.0 MB. Its original file name is hidden on this page for privacy, so we identify it by its SHA-256 fingerprint. VirusTotal first saw it on May 22, 2018.
How many antivirus engines detected this PDF document?
None of the 64 antivirus engines that checked it flag this PDF document. That is a good sign, but not proof, so we also weigh who made it, how widely it is used and what it did in a test run.
What is the SHA-256 hash of this PDF document?
The SHA-256 fingerprint of this PDF document is 549e2e532213b0583710c538d889d2026a3fe06ca9b24181e5543a58b5d4c56c, and its MD5 is d1832864c60f3926c0b44ad65be91969. Two files with the same SHA-256 are identical, so use it to check you have exactly this file, not just one with the same name.
Is it safe to open this PDF document?
We found nothing harmful in this PDF document. The main caveat is where you got it: attackers sometimes spread malware under the name of real software, so get it from the official website. If your own antivirus warns about it, check the source before you ignore the warning.
How up to date is this analysis of this PDF document?
This report reflects the scan on Aug 25, 2026. A file's fingerprint never changes, but antivirus engines keep learning, so a rating can change later. To get a newer result, scan the file again: we refresh the antivirus results when the saved ones are out of date.
