Is Mod. 347.url safe?

Verdict
Malicious

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

This file executes a downloader chain via cmd.exe, pulling BAT scripts and Python payloads from a trycloudflare.com domain often abused for C2. Kaspersky flags it as WinINF variant; behavior matches offensive MITRE techniques like process injection. No counter-evidence outweighs the runtime indicators.

Do not open this file

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.

This section explains the evidence supporting the verdict and keeps conflicting or missing signals visible.

Analyst conclusion

This file executes a downloader chain via cmd.exe, pulling BAT scripts and Python payloads from a trycloudflare.com domain often abused for C2. Kaspersky flags it as WinINF variant; behavior matches offensive MITRE techniques like process injection. No counter-evidence outweighs the runtime indicators.

Where this verdict could be wrong3 caveats
  • Only 1/61 engines malicious, 16 tier1 clean; no strong tier1 consensus (>=3 engines).
  • behaviour.hasMaliciousSandboxVerdict=false (1 sandbox); droppedChildren.hasMaliciousChild=false (10 unknown).
  • No externalIntel.yaraify/circl hits; no similarHashes; no recentFeedback/communityComments.

These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.

Recommended action

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.

What this file does

Observed actions and their security significance

  • High concern: Injected code into another process, a technique that can conceal execution.

  • High concern: Changed an auto-start location that can make code run after sign-in or restart.

  • Moderate concern: Runs hidden system commands (script or shell).

  • Moderate concern: Communicated over a common application protocol; malware can use this for command-and-control.

  • Note: Reads your Windows user-account details.

  • Note: Collects details about your system.

  • Note: Loads extra code modules while running.

These are observed capabilities from an isolated analysis. A technique does not prove malicious intent on its own, and the file never ran on your device.

Threat context

How downloaders work

This file is a delivery vehicle. On its own it can look small and harmless, but its job is to quietly pull down and install the REAL payload — often a stealer, ransomware, or bot — from a server the attacker controls.

Bottom line:Because the dangerous part arrives later, early scans can look cleaner than the threat really is.

What to do now

This file is dangerous. Treat it as harmful and remove it.

  1. Recovery step 01

    Don't open this file. Delete this file from the device, then empty the Recycle Bin or Trash.

  2. Recovery step 02

    If you already opened it, disconnect from the internet and start with a full antivirus scan or Microsoft Defender Offline scan. If compromise is suspected or the problem persists, use a reputable second-opinion scanner and follow incident-recovery or clean-reinstall guidance.

  3. Recovery step 03

    If you typed any passwords while it was open, change them from a device you trust.

  4. Recovery step 04

    Get a fresh copy from the original trusted source and verify its exact hash when possible.

8 evidence-based answers
Is Mod. 347.url malware?
Evidence-based answer
Yes — Mod. 347.url is malicious. Do not open it. Delete this file from the device, then empty the Recycle Bin or Trash. 1 of 75 antivirus engines flag it (family: WinINF). It behaves as a downloader/dropper whose job is to pull additional malware onto the device. If you've already opened it, see the removal and recovery steps below.
What is Mod. 347.url?
Evidence-based answer
Mod. 347.url is a file (application/octet-stream), about 256 bytes. Our analysis identifies it as malicious (family: WinINF) — a downloader/dropper whose job is to pull additional malware onto the device. Because a file's name and icon can be faked, the safest way to identify it is by its cryptographic hash (below), not its filename.
How many antivirus engines detected Mod. 347.url?
Evidence-based answer
1 of 75 antivirus engines flagged Mod. 347.url, 1 of them as outright malicious. The raw count alone does not establish safety or danger; we also weigh which engines flagged it and corroborating behavior, identity, reputation, and rule evidence. The malicious verdict comes from the complete saved evidence, not from this antivirus count by itself.
I already downloaded and opened Mod. 347.url — what should I do?
Evidence-based answer
Act quickly. 1) Disconnect the device from the internet to stop the malware communicating or spreading. 2) Run a full scan with reputable anti-malware software (such as Malwarebytes) and quarantine everything it finds. 3) Change your important passwords from a DIFFERENT, clean device — many threats log keystrokes or steal saved credentials. 4) If you bank or shop on this device, watch closely for fraud and alert your bank. 5) For a confirmed infection, the most reliable fix is to back up your personal files and reinstall the operating system for a clean start.
How do I remove Mod. 347.url?
Evidence-based answer
To remove Mod. 347.url: 1) restart into Safe Mode (Safe Mode with Networking if you need to download a tool) so the malware doesn't auto-start. 2) Run a full scan with reputable anti-malware software and let it quarantine or delete the detections. 3) Delete this file from the device, then empty the Recycle Bin or Trash. 4) Check your browser extensions, startup items, and scheduled tasks for anything unfamiliar. 5) Reboot and scan again to confirm it's gone. If detections keep coming back, a clean operating-system reinstall is the most dependable cure.
What kind of malware is Mod. 347.url?
Evidence-based answer
Mod. 347.url is classified as a downloader/dropper whose job is to pull additional malware onto the device. Engines attribute it to the WinINF family. Knowing the family matters because it tells you the likely impact — data theft, remote control, file encryption, or unwanted ads — and guides the cleanup.
What is the SHA-256 hash of Mod. 347.url?
Evidence-based answer
The SHA-256 hash of Mod. 347.url is 6cd7a663e44d5e36cdc7139b534dddf305437217acd341315a2b5bdbb3089084, and its MD5 is 6640d6a683374d7eef91cba4e6b8619b. This hash is the file's unique fingerprint — two files with the same SHA-256 are identical. Use it to confirm you're looking at exactly this file (not just one with the same name) when comparing against antivirus databases or a download's published checksum.
How up to date is this analysis of Mod. 347.url?
Evidence-based answer
This report reflects the scan run on April 28, 2026. Because a file's hash never changes, the identity of Mod. 347.url 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.
