Is ResetterEpson.L800.NesabaMedia.rar safe?
RAR archive drops and executes AdjProg tooling flagged by four tier-1 engines with process-injection behaviour.
Four tier-1 engines converge on the adjprog family; sandbox shows process injection and defense-impairment techniques. The filename mimics security software, but the tier-1 consensus overrides that false-positive pattern.

Before opening or extracting

If you already opened or extracted it
Close it. If it opened links, requested credentials, or triggered unexpected behavior, disconnect from the internet and run a full device scan.
Intelligence
The saved assessment, checked against the scan evidence and recorded coverage.
The reasoning behind this verdict
This section explains the evidence supporting the verdict and keeps conflicting or missing signals visible.
Four tier-1 engines converge on the adjprog family; sandbox shows process injection and defense-impairment techniques. The filename mimics security software, but the tier-1 consensus overrides that false-positive pattern.
The engine block shows 16 detections out of 76 scanners, including a strong tier-1 consensus on the adjprog family. Runtime evidence captured process injection (T1055) and defense evasion (T1562.001) when the archive extracted and launched multiple DLLs via rundll32. Although the filename triggers the AV-on-AV heuristic, the presence of three tier-1 engines agreeing on the same family outweighs that signal. No trusted signer, no clean RAG history, and no contradictory external-intel findings support the malicious classification.
What We Detected
16 of 76 engines flagged the RAR, four of them tier-1. Three tier-1 engines agreed on the adjprog family. Sandbox execution revealed AdjProg.exe writing printer-adjustment files and loading several DLLs via rundll32, mapping to MITRE T1055 and T1562.001.
Threat Behavior
The archive extracts an Epson-printer adjustment utility that performs process injection and tampers with system protections. No malicious child files were found among the ten dropped artifacts, and no external C2 domains were observed in the single sandbox run.
What To Do Now
Do not open or extract the archive. Keep endpoint protection enabled and delete the file. If the file was already executed, scan the system with current signatures and monitor for unexpected printer-related processes.
Where this verdict could be wrong1 caveat
- filenameAnalysis.looksLikeSecuritySoftware=true and filename contains 'ResetterEpson' — classic AV-on-AV false-positive shape, but tier-1 consensus overrides it.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- tier-1 family consensus on adjprog
- observed process injection (T1055)
- defense-evasion technique (T1562.001)
- filename mimics security software
Treat the archive as malicious; delete it and do not execute any contents.

What this file does
Observed actions and their security significance
High concern: Injected code into another process, a technique that can conceal execution.
High concern: Attempted to impair or bypass security controls.
High concern: Manipulated how the operating system loads code, which can redirect execution.
Moderate concern: Communicated over a common application protocol; malware can use this for command-and-control.
Moderate concern: Scans through your files and folders.
Moderate concern: Checked the environment for virtualisation or analysis tools.
Moderate concern: Checks which security software you have installed.
These are observed capabilities from an isolated analysis. A technique does not prove malicious intent on its own, and the file never ran on your device.
Threat context
How trojans work
A trojan disguises itself as something useful or harmless to trick you into running it. Once open, it does its real job in the background — anything from stealing data to opening a back door or downloading more malware.
Bottom line:The disguise is the whole trick, so a trustworthy-looking name or icon means nothing.

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.
The saved runtime evidence maps this activity to MITRE T1055 (Process Injection). The mapping supports possible process injection, but it does not prove the exact injection method or the operator's intent.
