Verdict Suspicious
Is Overlay Cat_ 1. 1. 0_ windows_ x64- setup. exe safe? Treat it as suspicious.
Unsigned installer with zero engine detections but import-table fingerprint matches to previously suspicious samples.
Read the whole reasonShow less
Why Suspicious? unsigned installer.
Limited evidence · One sign points to a problem; nothing else confirms it.
Treat as borderline; do not execute on production systems until a signed version or additional reputation data is available.
What to do now4 steps
Some signs point to a problem, but nothing confirms it is harmful. Treat it with caution.
What to do
Don't install it unless you're sure where it came from.
Check where you got it: an unexpected attachment, a link someone sent you or a re-upload is a red flag.
If you can't confirm where it came from, delete it. If you need the program, download it again from the publisher's own website.
If you already installed it
Stop using it, run a full scan with your antivirus and watch for unexpected behavior or security alerts.

Why we think so
2 points against it and 3 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.
The reasoning behind this verdict
No antivirus engine flagged the file, yet the import-table fingerprint matches four prior suspicious and one malicious installer. The unsigned status and single sandbox run showing leave the risk level unresolved.
Seventy-five engines returned zero malicious detections, including seventeen major antivirus engines. The file is unsigned despite being an installer, and its import-table fingerprint collides with four previously suspicious samples and one malicious sample. Sandbox execution recorded one offensive technique but no malicious verdict or dropped malicious files it created. The contacted IP lacks a completed host-reputation check, leaving the direct-IP rule-based inconclusive.
What We Detected
Zero detections across 75 engines, including all major antivirus engines. The executable is unsigned and carries an import-table fingerprint shared by other installer packages previously flagged suspicious or malicious.
Threat Behavior
One sandbox run observed T1134 (access token manipulation) plus common installer activity. No malicious sandbox verdict, no dropped malicious files it created, and no completed host-reputation check for the single contacted IP.
What To Do Now
Run the installer only in a controlled environment or obtain a signed build from the vendor. Keep security software enabled and monitor for unexpected outbound connections.
Where this verdict could be wrong1 caveat
- similarHashes shows 4/5 prior import-table fingerprint matches flagged suspicious despite zero engine detections — possible installer-framework false-positive pattern.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- zero engine detections
- medium prevalence
- no malicious sandbox verdict
- unsigned installer
- import-table fingerprint matches prior suspicious samples

What the test run showed
What the file did on a test computer
Confirmed in the test run
Moderate concern: Contains packed or scrambled code that is harder to inspect (common in installers too).
Moderate concern: Ran commands or a script on the test computer.
Moderate concern: Checked whether it was running on a test computer.
Note: Read basic details of the test computer, such as its Windows version.
Note: Looked through folders on the test computer (most installers do this).
Note: Loaded extra code modules while running.
Sandbox labels we could not confirm (common in safe files too)
Not confirmed: A sandbox rule tagged this run as contacting a server, but no contacted host was recorded.
Not confirmed: A sandbox rule tagged this run as setting up auto-start; no auto-start entry was recorded.
This file was run on a test computer (a sandbox), not on yours. Labels we could not confirm are listed so you can see them, but they are not treated as evidence against the file.
