Is BomS.pbo safe?
No antivirus engine detected a threat in this data file, although its recent appearance and absent runtime analysis warrant ordinary source verification.
The sample received no detections from 75 antivirus engines, including no flags from the 17 tier-1 engines that reported. Independent intelligence also found no matching threat indicators, but the file is newly observed and lacks runtime or complete network-reputation evidence.

Before opening
Open it only when its sender or download source is one you independently trust.
If you already opened it
Keep normal device protection enabled and stop if the file behaves unexpectedly.

The reasoning behind this verdict
This section explains the evidence supporting the verdict and keeps conflicting or missing signals visible.
The sample received no detections from 75 antivirus engines, including no flags from the 17 tier-1 engines that reported. Independent intelligence also found no matching threat indicators, but the file is newly observed and lacks runtime or complete network-reputation evidence.
All 75 antivirus engines returned without a malicious or suspicious finding, and 17 tier-1 engines reported no detection. No MalwareBazaar, CIRCL, or YARAify match adds threat corroboration. The .pbo sample is an unknown, non-signable data format, so the lack of a signature is neutral. Confidence is moderated because it has only one recorded submission and no completed sandbox observation. Contacted-host reputation was not checked or saved, so no conclusion about network activity can be drawn.
What We Detected
No malicious or suspicious result appeared among 75 antivirus engines. Seventeen tier-1 engines reported no detection, and no engine supplied a malware-family label.
Threat Behavior
No completed sandbox run is available, so execution behavior was not observed. The contacted-host cross-check is also unavailable, meaning there is no complete network-reputation result. MalwareBazaar, CIRCL, and YARAify supplied no corroborating match.
What To Do Now
Confirm that the file came from the expected game, mod, or content source before loading it. Keep endpoint protection enabled, and rescan after engines have had more time to assess this newly submitted sample if its origin is uncertain.
Where this verdict could be wrong3 caveats
- prevalence.classification=rare_new and file.ageDays=0 mean the absence of detections has not yet benefited from long-term exposure.
- The file type is unknown and behaviour=null, so neither its internal purpose nor execution effects were dynamically established.
- One of 5 file-type-only similar hashes received a suspicious verdict, and these broad matches do not establish shared code or provenance.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- 0/75 antivirus engines reported a malicious or suspicious result.
- 17 tier-1 engines reported no detection.
- No MalwareBazaar, CIRCL, or YARAify hit was found.
- No brand mismatch or adversarial filename pattern was detected.
- No malicious dropped child is reported.
- Only one source and one submission are recorded.
- The sample was first observed on the analysis date.
- No completed runtime observation is available.
- No complete contacted-host reputation result is available.
- The generic file-type classification limits structural identification.
Use the file only if its source and intended application are expected, and keep endpoint protection enabled. If the source is uncertain, wait for broader reputation to develop and rescan it before use.

How widely this file has been seen
Barely seen in the wild and first surfaced recently. That limits reputation evidence, but rarity alone is not proof of malware.

What to do now
This file appears low risk based on the evidence available now.
- Recovery step 01
Open it only when its sender or download source is one you independently trust.
- Recovery step 02
A clean result reduces known risk, but it cannot guarantee that every new or targeted threat has been detected.
- Recovery step 03
Keep your antivirus and Windows updates switched on so you stay protected.
