Why we think so
3 points against it and 5 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.
The reasoning behind this verdict
All 60 antivirus engines that checked it returned no malicious or suspicious finding, including 18 major antivirus engines. The document has been observed for over eleven years, and available threat-intelligence checks produced no hit; however, no completed the test run or contacted-host assessment is available.
Static scanning produced zero malicious and zero suspicious findings among 70 antivirus engines. All 18 reporting major antivirus engines were non-detecting, with no family consensus or hacking tool label. The PDF has an observation history exceeding eleven years and eight submissions from four sources, reducing concern that it is an unrecognized new sample. Research-rule and known-malware checks also returned no matches. Behavior in the test run was not captured, and host reputation was not checked, so those areas remain unverified rather than clean.
What We Detected
None of the 60 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the PDF as malicious or suspicious. This includes 18 major antivirus engines such as Microsoft, Kaspersky, BitDefender, ESET-NOD32, and Avast. No malware family, hacking tool label, known-malware record, or research-rule match was reported.
Threat Behavior
No completed sandbox observation is available, so the document's behavior was not directly observed. The file carries an automatic-action tag, but that metadata alone does not establish harmful activity. No complete contacted-host reputation result is available.
What To Do Now
The available static evidence supports normal use. Open the document with an updated PDF reader and keep security software enabled, especially if its source is unfamiliar or unexpected.
Where this verdict could be wrong3 caveats
- No completed sandbox run was recorded, so embedded actions were not observed in a completed sandbox run.
- No contacted-host reputation result was saved, so no complete reputation assessment exists for any network destinations the document might contact.
- The file's tag list includes "autoaction", indicating the PDF may contain an automatic document action even though no engine detected it.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- 0/60 engines reported a malicious or suspicious result.
- 18 major antivirus engines reported it clean and no major antivirus engines flagged it.
- A first sighting 4188 days ago provides a long observation history.
- No community YARA rule matched and the hash is not in the known-software reference database.
- The hash is not listed in the MalwareBazaar malware database.
- No completed observation from the test run is available.
- No contacted-host reputation cross-check is available.
- The file.tags array contains "autoaction", indicating a possible automatic PDF action.
