Why we think so
3 points against it and 5 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.
The reasoning behind this verdict
None of the 61 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the file, including the major antivirus engines that returned results. It is a tiny, non-executable email object with no external intelligence hits, although its short history (seen shortly before Oct 10, 2026) and lack of runtime coverage warrant ordinary caution.
The strongest evidence is the absence of detections across 75 engines, with no major antivirus engines identifying a threat. The object is only 515 bytes and is classified as an email rather than an executable, so code signing is not relevant. MalwareBazaar, CIRCL, and YARAify supplied no corroborating threat intelligence or malware-specific rule matches. Five broadly similar file-type records also received clean assessments, though file-type similarity is weak identity evidence. No sandbox run or complete network-host reputation check is available, so the assessment rests primarily on static scanning and file characteristics.
What We Detected
None of the 61 antivirus engines that checked it flagged this 515-byte email object, and no engine supplied a malware-family label. MalwareBazaar, CIRCL, and YARAify also returned no matching intelligence.
Threat Behavior
No completed sandbox observation is available, so behavior in the test run cannot be characterized. A complete reputation check of contacted hosts is also unavailable; there are no observed network details on which to base a conclusion.
What To Do Now
The available static evidence does not indicate a threat. Because the object is and has a generic attachment name, avoid opening it if it arrived unexpectedly, and keep security software enabled while handling the associated message.
Where this verdict could be wrong2 caveats
- The file is from one submitter, so its history is limited.
- No completed sandbox observation or complete contacted-host reputation check is available.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- None of the 61 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the object.
- All 17 major antivirus engines that returned results reported no detection.
- The object is a tiny, non-executable email item rather than a program.
- No malware-specific external intelligence or YARA rule matched it.
- Five broadly similar file-type records previously received clean assessments.
- The object was first observed very recently and has only one recorded submission.
- Its generic attachment name provides little information about the content.
- No behavior in the test run or complete contacted-host reputation result is available.
