MT AI Engine · our arbiter

The verdict, reasoned out.

Not a rules engine. The MT AI Engine reads every signal we collected, weighs them against history, and commits to an answer.

62%Confidence
Moderate
Reasoning

All 64 reporting engines returned clean, including 17 tier-1 engines, producing a strong negative signal. However the sandbox recorded three offensive MITRE techniques and triggered two high/medium heuristics for reflective injection and DNS-less C2. The JAR is unsigned, three days old, and has no prior similar-hash verdicts. These contradictory signals place the file in mixed-signals territory rather than clean or confirmed malicious.

Key signals · 5

Each signal cites a concrete token from the evidence the arbiter saw — engine name, MITRE technique, signer string, or an exact count.

  1. engines.tier1Malicious=0 and engines.malicious=0 across 64 reporting engines

  2. behaviour.offensiveTechniques includes T1055 (Process Injection) and triggeredHeuristics[0].rule=MalwareTips.Synth.ProcessInjection

  3. behaviour.contactedIps=["162.159.36.2"] with zero contactedDomains — MalwareTips.Synth.DirectIpC2 fired

  4. signing.verified=false (unsigned) and prevalence.classification=medium

  5. droppedChildren.hasMaliciousChild=false and externalIntel.yaraify.ruleCount=0

Points in its favour
  • Zero malicious detections across 64 engines
  • 17 tier-1 engines reported clean
  • No malicious dropped children
  • No external intelligence hits
Points against
  • Process injection (T1055) observed in sandbox
  • Direct-IP contact without DNS resolution
  • Unsigned JAR with numeric version in filename
  • Three-day file age and medium prevalence
What to do

Treat as suspicious; isolate and monitor before any production use.

  • ProcessInjectionhigh

    MITRE T1055 (Process Injection) observed — CreateRemoteThread / APC / reflective-DLL injection. The payload is being smuggled into a legitimate process to bypass AV hooks.

    "C:\Program Files\Java\jre-1.8\bin\javaw.exe" -jar "C:\Users\<USER>\Desktop\download.jar"
  • DirectIpC2medium

    Sample contacted 1 external IP address(es) and zero domains. Benign software virtually always uses DNS; no-DNS direct-IP C2 is a strong malware indicator because it bypasses reputation systems and dodges domain-based blocklists.

Files are processed in a streaming pass-through — MalwareTips never stores the binary on its servers. Only the scan result (hash, detections, verdict) is retained so the next person who scans the same file gets an instant answer. If you ran this file on your computer and are worried, scan your system with an up-to-date antivirus and change critical passwords from a different device.
