Why we think so
0 points against it and 4 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.
The reasoning behind this verdict
All 66 antivirus engines that checked it returned clean results. The file is common and old with thousands of prior submissions.
The complete absence of malicious detections from every major and smaller engine outweighs the sandbox heuristics. Prevalence data shows the file has circulated for nearly four years without incident. No file it created or contacted host carries a malicious verdict. The two triggered rules map observed behaviour to offensive techniques, yet lack corroboration from any engine or external intelligence source.
What We Detected
73 engines scanned the ZIP; none flagged it malicious or suspicious. Sandbox execution produced MITRE mappings T1055 and T1562.001 plus access to the Windows password store, but returned no malicious verdict and no malicious files it created.
Threat Behavior
The observed process activity is consistent with the rules, yet the file has been submitted 3729 times over 1372 days with zero engine detections and no external-intel hits.
What To Do Now
Keep security software enabled. The file can be treated as benign based on current evidence, but monitor any new submissions or behaviour changes.
