Safe
Zero engine detections on a 9-year-old unsigned EPUB archive with no behavioural or external-intel signals.
683e7e4ed27d5cd264…a2cbb05476The reasoning behind this verdict
The MT AI Engine weighs every signal from this scan — antivirus detections, sandbox behaviour, code signing, prevalence and historical matches — to reach a single, evidence-based verdict.
The complete absence of malicious detections across both tier-1 and tier-2 engines, combined with the file's age and lack of any behavioural telemetry, points to a benign document. No adversarial filename patterns, brand mismatches, or external-intel corroboration exist. While the single-submission history leaves some uncertainty, the total lack of any positive malicious signal outweighs that concern.
Each signal cites a concrete token from the evidence the arbiter saw — engine name, MITRE technique, signer string, or an exact count.

- Auer, Margit - Die Schule der magischen Tiere 01 - Die Schule der magischen Tiere.epub appears safe. 65 of 65 antivirus engines report it clean. As a habit, only open files you downloaded from the official source, since attackers sometimes distribute trojanised copies of legitimate software under the same name.
- Auer, Margit - Die Schule der magischen Tiere 01 - Die Schule der magischen Tiere.epub is a file, about 4.3 MB. Our analysis found no threat indicators for it. A file's name can be reused by different files, so we identify it by its cryptographic hash (below).
- None — all 65 antivirus engines we queried report Auer, Margit - Die Schule der magischen Tiere 01 - Die Schule der magischen Tiere.epub as clean. That's reassuring, though brand-new malware can briefly evade detection before vendors add signatures, so we also weigh the file's behaviour and reputation.
- The SHA-256 hash of Auer, Margit - Die Schule der magischen Tiere 01 - Die Schule der magischen Tiere.epub is 683e7e4ed27d5cd26497889fd2ac4bba7f459b42d15b31526319e6a2cbb05476, and its MD5 is 387690d3b309e7ee22fc741c6f7dddec.

- Based on this scan, yes — Auer, Margit - Die Schule der magischen Tiere 01 - Die Schule der magischen Tiere.epub shows no threat indicators. The important caveat is source: make sure you downloaded it from the official website or a trusted store, because attackers sometimes distribute malware-laced copies under a legitimate file's name. If your own antivirus flags it while we report it clean, that is most often a false positive, but verify the source before overriding your antivirus.

Because a file's hash never changes, the identity of Auer, Margit - Die Schule der magischen Tiere 01 - Die Schule der magischen Tiere.epub is fixed — but antivirus coverage improves over time, so a file that looks clean today can pick up detections later (and vice-versa). If you need the latest picture, MalwareTips staff can re-run the analysis from scratch.
