Is raven-aio.rar safe?

Verdict
Malicious

Three tier-1 engines agree on MalwareX, while sandbox evidence shows credential theft, process injection, security-control impairment, and direct executable retrieval.

The archive drew 14 detections from 75 engines, including five tier-1 detections and strong MalwareX agreement among three tier-1 engines. A completed sandbox run also mapped credential theft, process injection, defense evasion, and downloads of additional executables from a direct IP address.

The reasoning behind this verdict

This section explains the evidence supporting the verdict and keeps conflicting or missing signals visible.

97%Confidence
Very high
Analyst conclusion

The archive drew 14 detections from 75 engines, including five tier-1 detections and strong MalwareX agreement among three tier-1 engines. A completed sandbox run also mapped credential theft, process injection, defense evasion, and downloads of additional executables from a direct IP address.

Where this verdict could be wrong4 caveats
  • Ten dropped children were inspected without a confirmed malicious verdict, but all ten remain unclassified rather than established benign files.
  • behaviour.hasMaliciousSandboxVerdict=false, although the completed run still recorded eight offensive techniques and executable downloads.
  • BitDefender, Kaspersky, Microsoft, and several other engines did not detect the sample.
  • YARAify returned ruleCount=0 and MalwareBazaar had no hit, which reduces external corroboration but does not outweigh the tier-1 consensus and runtime evidence.

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

Do not extract or run this archive; quarantine or delete it while keeping security protection enabled. If it was executed, isolate the device, run a full security scan, and rotate exposed browser, account, and cryptocurrency-wallet credentials.

What this file does

Observed actions and their security significance

  • High concern: Accessed operating-system credential data, which can expose saved passwords.

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

  • High concern: Searched files or settings where passwords and keys may be stored.

  • High concern: Accessed browser or password-store data that may contain saved logins.

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

  • High concern: Manipulated how the operating system loads code, which can redirect execution.

  • Moderate concern: Contained obfuscated or packed code that makes inspection harder.

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.

Threat context

How trojans work

A trojan disguises itself as something useful or harmless to trick you into running it. Once open, it does its real job in the background — anything from stealing data to opening a back door or downloading more malware.

Bottom line:The disguise is the whole trick, so a trustworthy-looking name or icon means nothing.

What to do now

This file is dangerous. Treat it as harmful and remove it.

  1. Recovery step 01

    Don't open or extract this archive. Delete this archive from the device, then empty the Recycle Bin or Trash.

  2. Recovery step 02

    If you already opened or extracted it, disconnect from the internet and start with a full antivirus scan or Microsoft Defender Offline scan. If compromise is suspected or the problem persists, use a reputable second-opinion scanner and follow incident-recovery or clean-reinstall guidance.

  3. Recovery step 03

    From a different, clean device, change the passwords on your important accounts (email and banking first) and turn on two-factor authentication.

  4. Recovery step 04

    Get a fresh copy from the original trusted source and verify its exact hash when possible.

8 evidence-based answers
Is raven-aio.rar a virus?
Evidence-based answer
Yes — raven-aio.rar is malicious. Do not open or extract it. Delete this archive from the device, then empty the Recycle Bin or Trash. 14 of 75 antivirus engines flag it (family: MalwareX). It behaves as a trojan — malware disguised as something harmless to trick you into running it. If you've already opened or extracted it, see the removal and recovery steps below.
What is raven-aio.rar?
Evidence-based answer
raven-aio.rar is a compressed archive, about 23 MB. Our analysis identifies it as malicious (family: MalwareX) — a trojan — malware disguised as something harmless to trick you into running it. Because a file's name and icon can be faked, the safest way to identify it is by its cryptographic hash (below), not its filename.
How many antivirus engines detected raven-aio.rar?
Evidence-based answer
14 of 75 antivirus engines flagged raven-aio.rar, 14 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. The malicious verdict comes from the complete saved evidence, not from this antivirus count by itself.
What should I do if I already opened or extracted raven-aio.rar?
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 raven-aio.rar?
Evidence-based answer
To remove raven-aio.rar: 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 raven-aio.rar?
Evidence-based answer
raven-aio.rar is classified as a trojan — malware disguised as something harmless to trick you into running it. Engines attribute it to the MalwareX 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 raven-aio.rar?
Evidence-based answer
The SHA-256 hash of raven-aio.rar is cca1e6193e016ed0506508bdb7de5b7eab3b04f9fd41dfc82c3edff8972d04e5, and its MD5 is 9ad349bb9d1f7c8331134d1fa4dad7d9. 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 raven-aio.rar?
Evidence-based answer
This report reflects the scan run on September 14, 2026. Because a file's hash never changes, the identity of raven-aio.rar 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.
