Is v1.19.923.zip safe?

Verdict
Suspicious

Five of 75 engines flagged this newly observed ZIP, with ESET-NOD32 and Varist naming WinGo, but runtime and independent intelligence corroboration are unavailable.

The archive warrants caution because 5 of 75 engines detected it, including ESET-NOD32 identifying WinGo/Kryptik and Varist independently naming WinGo. However, only one tier-1 engine flagged it, and there is no completed runtime analysis or independent intelligence hit to confirm the threat.

Do not open or extract it until verified

Quarantine the archive and avoid extracting or running its contents until its source and contents are independently verified. Keep antivirus and endpoint protection enabled throughout any further analysis.

01

Before opening or extracting

Do not open or extract it until the source can be verified independently.

02

If you already opened or extracted it

Stop using it, scan the device, and watch for unexpected behavior or security alerts. Get a fresh copy from the original trusted source and verify its exact hash when possible.

Analyst conclusion

The archive warrants caution because 5 of 75 engines detected it, including ESET-NOD32 identifying WinGo/Kryptik and Varist independently naming WinGo. However, only one tier-1 engine flagged it, and there is no completed runtime analysis or independent intelligence hit to confirm the threat.

Where this verdict could be wrong3 caveats
  • Only 5/75 engines detected the archive, while 15 tier-1 engines reported no detection and tier1Malicious=1.
  • externalIntel.yaraify.ruleCount=0, externalIntel.circl.hit=false, and externalIntel.malwareBazaar.hit=false provide no independent corroboration, though coverage gaps remain possible.
  • The two similarHashes entries are matchKind=filetype only, so their suspicious and malicious outcomes do not establish a close relationship to this archive.

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

Quarantine the archive and avoid extracting or running its contents until its source and contents are independently verified. Keep antivirus and endpoint protection enabled throughout any further analysis.

8 evidence-based answers
Is v1.19.923.zip safe, or is it malware?
Evidence-based answer
v1.19.923.zip is suspicious — treat it as unsafe until you're sure. 5 of 75 antivirus engines flag it (family: WinGo); that detection signal contributes to the cautious verdict. Don't open or extract it unless you fully trust where it came from. Get a fresh copy from the original trusted source and verify its exact hash when possible.
What is v1.19.923.zip?
Evidence-based answer
v1.19.923.zip is a compressed archive (application/x-zip-compressed), about 84.2 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 v1.19.923.zip?
Evidence-based answer
5 of 75 antivirus engines flagged v1.19.923.zip, 5 of them as outright malicious. The raw count alone does not establish safety or danger; we also weigh which engines flagged it and corroborating behavior, identity, reputation, and rule evidence.
What should I do if I already opened or extracted v1.19.923.zip?
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 v1.19.923.zip?
Evidence-based answer
To remove v1.19.923.zip: 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 archive 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 kind of malware is v1.19.923.zip?
Evidence-based answer
v1.19.923.zip is classified as a trojan — malware disguised as something harmless to trick you into running it. Engines attribute it to the WinGo family. Knowing the family matters because it tells you the likely impact — data theft, remote control, file encryption, or unwanted ads — and guides the cleanup.
What is the SHA-256 hash of v1.19.923.zip?
Evidence-based answer
The SHA-256 hash of v1.19.923.zip is c356eaa3db04b7b4fe89bfd62ee88994e58313f9b7b9794b4c73f9ce297c3eda, and its MD5 is e97cee53847e31f2188ab57b92b588ae. 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 v1.19.923.zip?
Evidence-based answer
This report reflects the scan run on September 12, 2026. Because a file's hash never changes, the identity of v1.19.923.zip 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.
