Malicious

INI file masquerading as .url that chains cmd fetches, downloads embedded Python from suspicious Cloudflare tunnel, and shows injection/LSASS behavior.

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.

85%Confidence
Very high
Reasoning

A single tier1 engine (Kaspersky) names it a WinINF Trojan, corroborated by strong behavioral signals: direct IP contacts, remote BAT execution, Python embed download/extract, and heuristics for injection/LSASS. Unsigned, brand new, and rare with no positive history. Clean engine majority and unknown children provide weak dissent but do not override the downloader pattern and offensive techniques.

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. Kaspersky: UDS:Trojan.WinINF.Alien.gen (tier1)

  2. behaviour.offensiveTechniques: ['T1055','T1059.001','T1547.001','T1560']

  3. triggeredHeuristics[0].rule: MalwareTips.Synth.ProcessInjection (fired=true, high)

  4. contactedUrls[0]: http://affiliates-icons-motorola-beverages.trycloudflare.com/cd.bat

  5. contactedIps: ['104.16.231.132','150.171.73.13'] (DirectIpC2)

Points in its favour
  • 60/61 engines undetected (16 tier1 clean)
  • No confirmed malicious children/hosts/sandbox verdicts
Points against
  • Downloader chain: remote BAT/Python fetch via cmd/curl/PowerShell
  • Suspicious Cloudflare tunnel (trycloudflare.com)
  • Process injection (T1055 on svchost.exe)
  • LSASS access (credential dump shape)
  • Direct IP C2 (7 IPs, no DNS)
  • Unsigned, rare_new (age 0 days)
What to do

Delete this file immediately and run a full system scan. Monitor for PythonEmbedded artifacts in Temp and block associated IPs/domains to prevent further infection.

Our heuristics on VT data + sandbox behaviour
  • ProcessInjectionhigh

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

    Evidence
    C:\Windows\System32\svchost.exe -k LocalSystemNetworkRestricted -p -s WdiSystemHost
  • CredentialDumpermedium

    Sandbox observed process activity targeting LSASS (Windows credential store). Legitimate software has no business reading LSASS memory — this is Mimikatz-shape behaviour.

    Evidence
    C:\Windows\system32\lsass.exe
  • DirectIpC2medium

    Sample contacted 7 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.
