Is Dante and vergil.jpg safe?
No engine among 75 detected a threat in this JPEG, and external intelligence produced no malware, YARA, or known-file matches.
The JPEG received no malicious or suspicious detections from 75 antivirus engines, including no flags from 18 tier-1 engines. No external malware or YARA matches were found, although runtime analysis and a complete contacted-host reputation check were unavailable.

Intelligence
The saved assessment, checked against the scan evidence and recorded coverage.
The reasoning behind this verdict
This section explains the evidence supporting the verdict and keeps conflicting or missing signals visible.
The JPEG received no malicious or suspicious detections from 75 antivirus engines, including no flags from 18 tier-1 engines. No external malware or YARA matches were found, although runtime analysis and a complete contacted-host reputation check were unavailable.
The strongest evidence is the absence of malicious or suspicious detections across 75 antivirus engines. Eighteen tier-1 engines, including Microsoft, Kaspersky, BitDefender, ESET-NOD32, and Avast, reported no detection. Malware intelligence and YARA checks also returned no matches, and no heuristic rules fired. Code signing is irrelevant because the sample is a JPEG rather than executable software. The file has limited prevalence, and no sandbox run or complete contacted-host check is available, so the assessment rests primarily on static scanning and intelligence coverage.
What We Detected
None of 75 antivirus engines flagged the JPEG as malicious or suspicious. The non-detecting set includes 18 tier-1 engines, such as Microsoft, Kaspersky, BitDefender, ESET-NOD32, and Avast. Malware intelligence, CIRCL, and YARA checks returned no matches, while no heuristic rules were triggered.
Threat Behavior
No completed sandbox observation is available, so runtime behavior cannot be characterized. A complete reputation cross-check for any contacted hosts is also unavailable. Digital signing does not apply to this JPEG file type.
What To Do Now
The available static evidence supports ordinary use of the image. Keep endpoint protection enabled and rescan if the file changes, displays unexpected behavior, or was obtained through a suspicious message or download.
Where this verdict could be wrong2 caveats
- prevalence.uniqueSources=2 and prevalence.timesSubmitted=2 indicate that the file has limited historical exposure.
- behaviour=null and contactedHosts=null leave runtime activity and contacted-host reputation unverified.
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 engines reported a malicious or suspicious result.
- 18 tier-1 engines reported no detection.
- MalwareBazaar, CIRCL, and YARAify returned no matching intelligence.
- No heuristic rules fired.
- No brand mismatch was detected.
- Only 2 submitters and 2 submissions are recorded.
- No completed runtime observation is available.
- No complete contacted-host reputation result is available.
Normal handling is reasonable based on the available evidence. Keep endpoint protection enabled and avoid the file if its source or displayed content is unexpected.
