Is ninja_saga.exe safe?
Two low-trust engines flagged an unsigned 100 MB installer with no sandbox malice or external-intel hits.
Only two low-trust detections out of 75 engines, no tier-1 consensus, and the single sandbox run showed no malicious behaviour. The file is unsigned but prevalence is medium and no dropped children or external-intel hits exist.

Before running
Run it only when it came from the developer's official site or another source you independently trust.
If you already ran it
Keep normal device protection enabled and stop if the file behaves unexpectedly.
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.
Only two low-trust detections out of 75 engines, no tier-1 consensus, and the single sandbox run showed no malicious behaviour. The file is unsigned but prevalence is medium and no dropped children or external-intel hits exist.
The two detections come from Bkav (low_trust) and Gridinsoft (tier2) with no tier-1 engine participation. Sandbox execution produced only ambient MITRE techniques and no malicious verdict. Ten dropped children were inspected with none flagged malicious. External intelligence sources returned no hits and the file shows medium prevalence with no prior similar-hash verdicts.
What We Detected
Two engines (Bkav, Gridinsoft) returned malicious labels; all 17 tier-1 engines remained silent or timed out. The sample is an unsigned 100 MB Win32 EXE that writes ten temporary files during a single sandbox run, none of which triggered malicious verdicts.
Threat Behavior
No offensive MITRE techniques were observed. The sandbox recorded only ambient activity (process masquerading, system-information queries, file enumeration). No C2 domains, malicious child processes, or persistence mechanisms were identified.
What To Do Now
Keep endpoint protection enabled. If the file originates from an untrusted source, obtain a digital signature or verified download link before execution. Re-scan after any future signature or behaviour updates.
- tier1Malicious=0
- hasMaliciousSandboxVerdict=false
- hasMaliciousChild=false
- medium prevalence with no external-intel hits
The evidence supports treating the file as safe for normal use; continue monitoring with active protection.
