Is Aoba-26.2-09182026.jar safe?

Verdict
Suspicious

No antivirus engine detected this new JAR, but process-injection, service, defense-impairment, and unresolved direct-IP activity justify caution pending further validation.

All 74 antivirus engines avoided flagging the JAR, including 17 tier-1 engines, and no malicious sandbox decision or known-bad child was recorded. However, one runtime run mapped activity to T1055, T1543.002, and T1562.001 and contacted an IP whose reputation was not fully checked, so execution should be deferred unless the source is trusted.

Do not open or run it until verified

Verify the JAR against an official source and expected hash before use; otherwise quarantine it for further analysis. Keep antivirus and endpoint protection enabled.

01

Before opening or running

Do not open or run it until the source and publisher can be verified independently.

02

If you already opened or ran it

Stop using it, scan the device, and watch for unexpected behavior or security alerts. Get a fresh copy from the publisher's official site and verify its exact hash when possible.

Analyst conclusion

All 74 antivirus engines avoided flagging the JAR, including 17 tier-1 engines, and no malicious sandbox decision or known-bad child was recorded. However, one runtime run mapped activity to T1055, T1543.002, and T1562.001 and contacted an IP whose reputation was not fully checked, so execution should be deferred unless the source is trusted.

Where this verdict could be wrong4 caveats
  • The runtime mapping includes T1055 process injection and T1562.001 impairment of defenses, both of which warrant caution despite the absence of engine detections.
  • The sample is only 1 day old, limiting the value of detection silence and historical reputation.
  • A direct connection to 162.159.36.2 was observed, but contactedHosts=null leaves its reputation unresolved.
  • All 9 dropped children have unknown individual verdicts even though none is currently marked malicious.

These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.

Recommended action

Verify the JAR against an official source and expected hash before use; otherwise quarantine it for further analysis. Keep antivirus and endpoint protection enabled.

What this file does

Observed actions and their security significance

  • High concern: Injected code into another process, a technique that can conceal execution.

  • High concern: Created or modified a system service, which can keep code running.

  • High concern: Attempted to impair or bypass security controls.

  • Moderate concern: Runs hidden system commands (script or shell).

  • Moderate concern: Transferred a file over the network; malware can use this to fetch additional payloads.

  • Moderate concern: Checked the environment for virtualisation or analysis tools.

  • Moderate concern: Checks which security software you have installed.

These are observed capabilities from an isolated analysis. A technique does not prove malicious intent on its own, and the file never ran on your device.

What to do now

We couldn't fully clear this file. Treat it with caution.

  1. Recovery step 01

    Don't open or run it unless you're certain it came from a source you trust.

  2. Recovery step 02

    Check where you got it — an unexpected attachment or a random download link is a red flag.

  3. Recovery step 03

    If its origin cannot be confirmed, delete this Java file and use a fresh copy from a trusted source. Get a fresh copy from the publisher's official site and verify its exact hash when possible.

  4. Recovery step 04

    If you're still unsure, scan it again in a day or two — detections often catch up on newer files.

7 evidence-based answers
Is Aoba-26.2-09182026.jar safe, or is it malware?
Evidence-based answer
Aoba-26.2-09182026.jar is suspicious — treat it as unsafe until you're sure. No antivirus engine flagged it; the cautious verdict comes from other saved evidence such as identity, prevalence, signing, or runtime signals. Don't open or run it unless you fully trust where it came from. Get a fresh copy from the publisher's official site and verify its exact hash when possible.
What is Aoba-26.2-09182026.jar?
Evidence-based answer
Aoba-26.2-09182026.jar is a Java application or archive, about 15.4 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.
How many antivirus engines detected Aoba-26.2-09182026.jar?
Evidence-based answer
None — 0 of 74 antivirus engines flagged Aoba-26.2-09182026.jar. That's reassuring, though it is not proof that a file is safe, so we also weigh its behaviour, identity, and reputation.
What should I do if I already opened or ran Aoba-26.2-09182026.jar?
Evidence-based answer
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.
How do I remove Aoba-26.2-09182026.jar?
Evidence-based answer
To remove Aoba-26.2-09182026.jar: 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 this Java file from the device, then empty the Recycle Bin or 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.
What is the SHA-256 hash of Aoba-26.2-09182026.jar?
Evidence-based answer
The SHA-256 hash of Aoba-26.2-09182026.jar is bd4aa6d688d1d7ff13f0c65453e516ec9ef7b771aa518d27bf74630602346b47, and its MD5 is 143344f73027043ed8c06d72ebac5cf4. 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.
How up to date is this analysis of Aoba-26.2-09182026.jar?
Evidence-based answer
This report reflects the scan run on September 19, 2026. Because a file's hash never changes, the identity of Aoba-26.2-09182026.jar 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.
