Verdict Safe
Is Pamplebox.
No antivirus engine detected Pamplebox.dll, and its completed sandbox run showed no offensive behavior, malicious verdict, persistence, or file it created.

Moderate evidence · No engine flags it, but no publisher signature confirms who made it.

Why we think so
5 points against it and 4 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.
The reasoning behind this verdict
All 72 antivirus engines that checked it returned no detection, including 17 major antivirus engines. One sandbox run produced only common activity and no malicious runtime verdict, while the unsigned status, packing indicator, and network-profile rule-based warrant keeping normal security software enabled.
The sample received no malicious or suspicious detections from 76 antivirus engines, with all 17 reporting major antivirus engines silent. One completed sandbox run found no high-risk techniques, persistence, file it created, or malicious runtime verdict. The five contacted domains were checked and had no cached malicious or suspicious reputation, although the separately observed IP lacks equivalent coverage. The main concern is that this is an unsigned DLL marked as likely packed, and a dropper-network behaviour rule matched after network activity. That rule is not corroborated by engine detections, external intelligence, high-entropy code, or harmful runtime outcomes, so it carries limited weight.
What We Detected
Pamplebox.dll is an unsigned Win32 .NET DLL. None of the 72 antivirus engines that checked it flagged it, including 17 major antivirus engines, and no malware family was identified. External intelligence returned no matching YARA rules or recognized sample-feed entry.
Threat Behavior
One completed sandbox run recorded five common MITRE techniques but no high-risk techniques, persistence indicators, files it created, or malicious sandbox verdict. Five contacted domains were fully checked against the available host cache and had no malicious or suspicious entries; the separately observed IP was not covered by that check. A high-severity rule noted the combination of unsigned code, likely packing, and network activity, but the code section was not high-entropy and no harmful follow-on behavior was observed.
What To Do Now
Normal use is reasonable when the DLL came from the expected application or developer. Keep security software enabled, and avoid loading it if its source is unknown or its presence was unexpected.
Where this verdict could be wrong4 caveats
- Code signing applies to this file type but the file is unsigned, so no publisher identity or established signer history supports the DLL.
- triggeredHeuristics[0].rule=one of our behaviour rules fired because the unsigned, likely packed PE made network contacts during execution.
- The file appears packed, although no code section has packed-level entropy and the identified packer is Microsoft Visual C# / Basic .NET.
- The contacted IP 162.159.36.2 was not included in the cross-check of 5 hosts, so the host-reputation check does not cover every observed network endpoint.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- 0/72 antivirus engines detected a threat
- One sandbox run produced no malicious verdict or high-risk technique
- No persistence indicators or file it created hashes were observed
- No YARAify, MalwareBazaar, or CIRCL match was present
- Unsigned DLL with no verifiable publisher identity
- The file appears packed
- One of our behaviour rules fired during sandbox analysis
- Observed IP reputation was not included in the five-host cache inspection
- Only four submissions from four sources provide moderate prevalence

Section entropy & packers
No high-entropy executable section or known packer signature was detected. Data and resource sections can still have high entropy without indicating packed code.
These identify the compiler, runtime or installer used to build the file. They are not packing and are not a risk signal on their own.
