Suspicious
Low-trust detections only on a common_old unsigned Delphi EXE with mixed installer-like and direct-IP behaviour.
a90c7a464e2865290c…b836697088The reasoning behind this verdict
The MT AI Engine weighs every signal from this scan — antivirus detections, sandbox behaviour, code signing, prevalence and historical matches — to reach a single, evidence-based verdict.
The payload shows classic low-trust-only flagging with zero tier-1 malicious detections and a prior safe verdict on the same imphash. Prevalence as common_old over 1169 days plus clean dropped children and sandbox results weigh against active malware. However, the DirectIpC2 heuristic and single offensive MITRE technique prevent a clean safe verdict, producing mixed signals best captured as suspicious.
Each signal cites a concrete token from the evidence the arbiter saw — engine name, MITRE technique, signer string, or an exact count.

Treat as suspicious pending additional context; do not execute without isolation or further analysis.
What this file does
What it attempted when executed in an isolated sandbox
High concern: Talks to a remote server to take commands or send out your data.
Moderate concern: Obfuscates or packs its code to avoid detection.
Moderate concern: Runs hidden system commands (script or shell).
Moderate concern: Scans through your files and folders.
Moderate concern: Unpacks hidden code only once it's running.
Note: Reads your Windows user-account details.
Note: Collects details about your system.
Translated from the file's technical behaviour during analysis. It never ran on your device.
What to do now
We couldn't fully clear this file. Treat it with caution.
Don't run it unless you're certain it came from a source you trust.
Check where you got it — an email attachment or a random download link is a red flag.
If you're unsure, delete it. You can always re-download a clean copy from the official source.
If you're still unsure, scan it again in a day or two — detections often catch up on newer files.
What this file did when executed
This file was detonated in 1 sandbox and its runtime behaviour was observed.

YARA & heuristic rule matches
One or more medium-severity heuristic rules matched. Not definitive, but the patterns match known malware behaviour.
Sample contacted 18 external IP address(es) and zero domains. Benign software virtually always uses DNS; no-DNS direct-IP C2 is a strong malware indicator because it bypasses reputation systems and dodges domain-based blocklists.

2 detections across 75 engines
Section entropy & packers
Section-level entropy and packer detection from the PE header. Nothing suspicious here — entropy is within the normal range for unpacked code.
How widely this file has been seen
Widely seen in the wild for a long time. High prior this is legitimate; isolated detections on common-old files are usually false positives.

Safety FAQ
Common questions about Delphi 2021.10b Cars & Trucks.exe, answered from the scan data above.
- Delphi 2021.10b Cars & Trucks.exe is suspicious — treat it as unsafe until you're sure. 2 of 75 antivirus engines flag it, which isn't a strong consensus but is enough to be cautious. Don't run it unless you fully trust where it came from, and prefer downloading the software fresh from its official site.
- Delphi 2021.10b Cars & Trucks.exe is a Windows executable program, about 1.9 MB. We identify a file by its cryptographic hash rather than its name, because the same filename can be reused by completely different files — the hash below is the reliable fingerprint.
- 2 of 75 antivirus engines flagged Delphi 2021.10b Cars & Trucks.exe, 2 of them as outright malicious. A small number of detections can include false positives, so we weigh which engines flagged it and what else the file does, not just the raw count.
- Act quickly. 1) Disconnect the device from the internet to stop the malware communicating or spreading. 2) Run a full scan with reputable anti-malware software (such as Malwarebytes) and quarantine everything it finds. 3) Change your important passwords from a DIFFERENT, clean device — many threats log keystrokes or steal saved credentials. 4) If you bank or shop on this device, watch closely for fraud and alert your bank. 5) For a confirmed infection, the most reliable fix is to back up your personal files and reinstall the operating system for a clean start.
- To remove Delphi 2021.10b Cars & Trucks.exe: 1) restart into Safe Mode (Safe Mode with Networking if you need to download a tool) so the malware doesn't auto-start. 2) Run a full scan with reputable anti-malware software and let it quarantine or delete the detections. 3) Delete the original Delphi 2021.10b Cars & Trucks.exe file and empty the Recycle Bin/Trash. 4) Check your browser extensions, startup items, and scheduled tasks for anything unfamiliar. 5) Reboot and scan again to confirm it's gone. If detections keep coming back, a clean operating-system reinstall is the most dependable cure.
- The SHA-256 hash of Delphi 2021.10b Cars & Trucks.exe is a90c7a464e2865290c7212360fbac6ad976109c2da8c9c77f6e641b836697088, and its MD5 is d39311a01ac2cecf3e45bad448342ce1. This hash is the file's unique fingerprint — two files with the same SHA-256 are identical. Use it to confirm you're looking at exactly this file (not just one with the same name) when comparing against antivirus databases or a download's published checksum.
- This report reflects the scan run on May 22, 2026. Because a file's hash never changes, the identity of Delphi 2021.10b Cars & Trucks.exe is fixed — but antivirus coverage improves over time, so a file that looks clean today can pick up detections later (and vice-versa). If you need the latest picture, MalwareTips staff can re-run the analysis from scratch.
