Verdict Safe
Is Lunar Client - Installer. exe safe? Yes, no threats found.
Zero engine detections on a signed Overwolf installer with clean sandbox and file it created results.
Strong evidence · A verified publisher signature, and no engine flags it.
Proceed with installation after confirming the digital signature; the file shows no malicious indicators across engines, behaviour, or children.
Good practice2 tips
We found nothing harmful in this file.
Install it only if it came from the developer's own website or an official app store.
Keep your antivirus and Windows updates switched on.
No scanner can promise a file is 100% safe.

Chapter 02
Why we think so
1 point against it and 4 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.
The reasoning behind this verdict
All 69 antivirus engines that checked it returned clean. The file is signed by Overwolf Ltd with a 100% safe historical sample. Sandbox execution produced no malicious verdicts and no malicious files it created or contacted hosts.
The complete absence of malicious detections across major and smaller engines combined with verified signing by Overwolf Ltd strongly supports a benign classification. Similar-hash RAG shows a prior safe verdict on another Overwolf installer using the same signer. No malicious sandbox verdict. No complete contacted-host reputation result was available.
What We Detected
73 engines scanned the sample; zero returned malicious or suspicious labels. The executable is signed and timestamped by Overwolf Ltd. Sandbox analysis recorded typical installer behaviour: extraction of .NET and Electron libraries, launch of Edge WebView2, and DNS-resolved connections to lunarclientcdn.com and overwolf analytics devices.
Threat Behavior
Seven MITRE techniques were observed, primarily process creation and file writes inside the installer’s temporary directory. No persistence mechanisms, no control-server domains, and no encryption of user data were present. All ten files it created remain unclassified and none triggered malicious verdicts in downstream scans.
What To Do Now
The installer can be executed in a standard user environment. Verify the digital signature in Windows before launch and download future updates only from lunarclient.com or the official Overwolf distribution channel.
Where this verdict could be wrong1 caveat
- triggeredHeuristics show high-severity three of our behaviour rules, which could indicate malicious behaviour if the Overwolf certificate were abused.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- 0/69 engines flagged malicious
- verified signature by Overwolf Ltd
- no malicious sandbox verdict or files it created
- prior safe verdict on same signer

Signatures and behavior heuristics
Low-severity pattern matches — worth noting but not on their own cause for alarm.
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.

Section entropy & packers
No high-entropy executable section or known packer signature was detected. Data and resource sections can still have high entropy without indicating packed code.
How widely this file has been seen
Rarely uploaded, and first seen more than two weeks ago. Often niche legitimate software or internal tooling; not a strong malware signal on its own.
