Why we think so
3 points against it and 4 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.
The reasoning behind this verdict
All 57 antivirus engines that checked it returned no malicious or suspicious classification for this plain-text document, including the reporting major antivirus engines. No external-intelligence source identified the hash, although runtime and contacted-host checks were unavailable.
The sample is a 19,896-byte plain-text document rather than an executable program. None of the 57 antivirus engines that checked it flagged it, and 16 major antivirus engines explicitly reported no detection. External intelligence produced no hash, family, or YARA-rule matches. Three file-type-only comparisons also received prior benign assessments, though those broad matches provide limited support. The file is and no completed runtime or comprehensive contacted-host reputation evidence is available.
What We Detected
The sample is a 19,896-byte plain-text document. None of the 57 antivirus engines that checked it reported a malicious or suspicious classification, including 16 reporting major antivirus engines. External intelligence returned no MalwareBazaar, CIRCL, or YARAify match.
Threat Behavior
No completed sandbox run is available, so behavior in the test run was not observed. The contacted-host reputation check was also unavailable; no network conclusion can be drawn from that missing coverage. As a non-executable text file, the sample has no applicable code-signing or PE-analysis evidence.
What To Do Now
The document can be handled as ordinary text, but review its contents before acting on links, commands, credentials requests, or social-engineering instructions. Keep security software enabled and rescan if the file changes or arrives with executable attachments.
Where this verdict could be wrong2 caveats
- The file is rare and with 1 submitter and 1 submission means the file has little reputation history.
- The absence of a completed sandbox run and the missing contacted-host reputation result leave activity in the test run and contacted-host reputation unobserved.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- 0/57 antivirus engines reported a malicious or suspicious classification.
- The sample is identified as text/plain rather than executable code.
- MalwareBazaar, CIRCL, and YARAify returned no matches.
- Three file-type-only historical comparisons received safe verdicts.
- Observed only once from one submitting source.
- No completed observation from the test run is available.
- No comprehensive contacted-host reputation result is available.
