Why we think so
4 points against it and 4 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.
The reasoning behind this verdict
All 67 antivirus engines that checked it returned no malicious or suspicious detection, including 17 major antivirus engines. The file is unsigned and made direct-IP contacts whose reputations were not checked, but its extensive prevalence, unpacked structure, and lack of high-risk runtime techniques strongly support legitimate software.
The sample received no malicious or suspicious detections from 75 antivirus engines, with all 17 major antivirus engines silent. It has also accumulated 10,937 submissions from 3,660 sources over 566 days, which strongly reduces the likelihood of an unidentified active threat. One completed sandbox run recorded 15 techniques common in legitimate software, no high-risk techniques, and no harmful sandbox assessment. A direct-IP rule is the main technical concern, but no complete host-reputation result is available, so those contacts cannot be characterized as either benign or harmful. The executable is unsigned and its five inspected files it created remain unclassified, yet neither point outweighs the broad antivirus agreement and established prevalence.
What We Detected
No malicious or suspicious result appeared among 75 antivirus engines. The file has been submitted 10,937 times by 3,660 sources over 566 days, indicating broad and established circulation.
Threat Behavior
One completed sandbox run recorded 15 techniques common in legitimate software and no high-risk techniques or harmful sandbox assessment. The sample contacted 13 external IP addresses without application domains, triggering one of our behaviour rules. Because contactedHosts is unavailable, no complete reputation assessment exists for those addresses. Five files it created were inspected without a known harmful result, but their individual classifications remain unknown.
What To Do Now
The unsigned status means publisher authenticity cannot be confirmed from a certificate. Obtain the executable from Ventoy's official release channel, verify its SHA-256 value against the publisher's release information when available, and keep security software enabled while running it.
Where this verdict could be wrong4 caveats
- The file is unsigned despite the applicability of code signing, so no publisher certificate authenticates this executable.
- One of our behaviour rules fired after 13 external IP contacts without application domains, and the missing contacted-host reputation result prevents determining whether those addresses have harmful reputations.
- communityComments[1] and communityComments[3] report third-party KillMBR assessments, but they have zero votes and are not corroborated by engines, the completed sandbox verdict, or offensive techniques.
- 5 dropped files have no saved verdict, so the absence of a known malicious child is not equivalent to five confirmed-clean children.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- 0/67 engines reported malicious or suspicious results.
- 10,937 submissions from 3,660 sources demonstrate established prevalence.
- The completed sandbox run reported the absence of mapped offensive techniques and the absence of a malicious sandbox verdict.
- Static PE analysis found no packer, high-entropy code, or likely packing.
- The executable is unsigned, so its publisher identity is not cryptographically verified.
- One of our behaviour rules fired after 13 external IP contacts without corresponding application domains.
- The missing contacted-host reputation result means no complete reputation result exists for observed network contacts.
- Zero-vote community annotations contain uncorroborated KillMBR assessments.
