Why we think so
3 points against it and 5 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.
The reasoning behind this verdict
All 61 antivirus engines that checked it returned without a malicious or suspicious finding, including 17 major antivirus engines. The PDF has also been known for years without developing a detection history, although no completed runtime or contacted-host assessment is available.
The strongest evidence is complete agreement across 74 antivirus engines, with no malicious or suspicious findings. Seventeen major antivirus engines, including Microsoft, Kaspersky, ESET, and BitDefender, reported no detection. The file was first submitted more than eight years ago and has not accumulated a malware label. Research-rule and malware-repository checks also produced no hits. No runtime sandbox data or complete contacted-host reputation result is available, so the conclusion rests primarily on static scanning and long-term history.
What We Detected
None of the 61 antivirus engines that checked it flagged this PDF as malicious or suspicious. All 17 reporting major antivirus engines returned without a detection, and no malware family was identified.
Threat Behavior
No completed observation from the test run is available, so execution behavior cannot be described. No complete contacted-host reputation result is available either. Static intelligence checks found no MalwareBazaar entry, CIRCL match, or YARAify research-rule hit.
What To Do Now
The evidence does not indicate a known threat. Open the document only if its source and expected contents make sense, keep security software enabled, and use an updated PDF reader because document vulnerabilities can exist independently of current signature detections.
Where this verdict could be wrong2 caveats
- No completed sandbox run was recorded, so no completed observation from the test run is available to confirm how the PDF behaves when opened.
- No contacted-host reputation result was saved, so no complete host-reputation result 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.
- 0/61 engines reported malicious or suspicious findings
- 17 major antivirus engines reported it clean and no major antivirus engines flagged it
- The hash is not listed in the MalwareBazaar malware database
- No community YARA rule matched
- It was first seen on Oct 5, 2017 without an accumulated threat label
- No completed sandbox run was recorded: no completed observation from the test run
- No contacted-host reputation result was saved: host-reputation checking was not completed or saved
- PDF documents can exploit reader vulnerabilities even when current signatures do not detect them
