Verdict Suspicious
Is Wish. jar safe? Treat it as suspicious.
None of the 66 antivirus engines that checked it flagged this Java archive, but it checks for debugging environments and contacts Discord, a pattern also seen in stealers.
Read the whole reasonShow less
Why Suspicious? Very new file seen by only two submitters.
Limited evidence · One sign points to a problem; nothing else confirms it.
If it came from a link, an attachment or a stranger, delete it.
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 open or run 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 opened or ran it
Stop using it, run a full scan with your antivirus and watch for unexpected behavior or security alerts.

Chapter 02
Why we think so
4 points against it and 4 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.
The reasoning behind this verdict
No antivirus engine in our network flagged this JAR, and the hosts it contacted are not in our malicious cache. However, the file is only hours old and seen by just two submitters. It also checks for analysis environments and contacts Discord, which fits common Java stealer behaviour. Treat it with caution until its source is confirmed.
None of the 66 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the file, including all 17 major antivirus engines, and external threat feeds have no record of it. The file is very new and rare, and as a Java archive it carries no code-signing identity to vouch for its author. In the sandbox, the file checked for debugging environments and CPU details and contacted Discord. Discord is a common exfiltration channel for Java stealers spread as game mods or cheats. The only offensive technique mapped coincides with routine system maintenance on the analysis machine, so it is weak evidence. Because the evidence points both ways, caution is warranted.
What We Detected
None of the 66 antivirus engines that checked it flagged this 20 MB Java archive. No researcher rules or threat feeds matched it, and we hold no prior verdicts for similar files. It was first seen on Oct 17, 2026, from only two submitters.
Threat Behavior
In one sandbox run, the file probed for debugging environments, read the CPU name, set its process name and connected to discord.com. Both contacted hosts are absent from our malicious cache. Six files written during the run have no saved verdict yet. The persistence-related technique mapping overlaps with routine printer-service log rotation on the test machine, so it carries little weight.
What To Do Now
Only run this file if it comes from a developer or site you trust. Fresh Java files shared as game mods or tools are a common delivery method for Discord-based account stealers. Keep your antivirus enabled. Consider rescanning in a few days, once engine coverage matures.
Where this verdict could be wrong2 caveats
- No engine, including 17 major antivirus engines, detected anything, and no malware-specific rules matched, so this may be an ordinary Java app such as a game client or mod.
- Discord contact is common for legitimate apps using Discord Rich Presence, and debug-environment checks are frequent in JVM software.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- None of the 66 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the file
- All 17 major antivirus engines reported it clean
- The Discord hosts it contacted are not in our malicious cache
- No matches in malware sample feeds or researcher rule sets
- Very new file seen by only two submitters
- Checks for debugging and analysis environments
- Connects to Discord, a channel often abused by Java stealers
- No code-signing identity is possible for this file type

What the test run showed
What the file did on a test computer
Confirmed in the test run
Moderate concern: Hid files or windows on the test computer.
Note: Talked to servers over the internet during the test run.
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: Checked which security software was installed on the test computer.
Sandbox labels we could not confirm (common in safe files too)
Not confirmed: A sandbox rule tagged this run as creating a service; no new service 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.
