Why we think so
3 points against it and 5 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.
The reasoning behind this verdict
The three detections come exclusively from less reliable engines and use generic labels, while all 17 reporting major antivirus engines remained silent. One completed sandbox observed only routine system-information discovery, with no offensive techniques, malicious sandbox conclusion, dropped files, or network contacts recorded.
Only 3 of the 71 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the executable, and all three detections came from less reliable engines using generic or machine-learning labels. All 17 reporting major antivirus engines, including BitDefender, Kaspersky, ESET-NOD32, and Fortinet, did not detect it. One completed sandbox observed system-information discovery, but no offensive techniques or malicious sandbox conclusion. No packer, high-entropy code, dropped files, or external-intelligence matches were found. The executable is unsigned, and no complete contacted-host reputation result is available, so ordinary source verification remains appropriate.
What We Detected
Only 3 of the 71 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the sample: Bkav, Cylance, and Trapmine. Each is classified as less reliable here, and their labels are generic rather than identifying a consistent malware family. All 17 reporting major antivirus engines, including BitDefender, Kaspersky, ESET-NOD32, Avast, and Fortinet, did not detect the file.
Threat Behavior
One completed sandbox run observed only T1082, a common system-information discovery action. It recorded no offensive techniques, malicious sandbox conclusion, persistence indicators, written files, dropped hashes, or network contacts. Static PE analysis also found no packer, likely packing, or high-entropy code. No complete contacted-host reputation cross-check is available, but the sandbox contact lists themselves were empty.
What To Do Now
The pattern strongly favors generic false alarms from less reliable engines. Because the executable is unsigned, obtain it from its expected official source, verify its SHA-256 value when the publisher provides one, and keep security software enabled while using it.
Where this verdict could be wrong3 caveats
- The file is unsigned for an executable where code signing applies to this file type, so no publisher identity or certificate history supports the file.
- Bkav reported W32.Malware.86F697FF, Cylance reported Unsafe, and Trapmine reported malicious.high.ml.score, although all are less reliable generic detections.
- The missing contacted-host reputation result means no complete host-reputation cross-check is available, though the completed sandbox recorded no contacted domains, IPs, or URLs.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- All 17 reporting major antivirus engines did not detect the sample
- No offensive MITRE techniques or malicious sandbox conclusion
- No dropped files, persistence indicators, or recorded network contacts
- No packing or high-entropy code indicators
- No MalwareBazaar, CIRCL, or YARAify match
- Unsigned Win32 executable with no verified publisher identity
- Three generic less reliable antivirus detections
- No complete contacted-host reputation cross-check was saved
