Suspicious
Unsigned 22-day-old PE with 4 tier-1 detections and confirmed T1055 process injection behaviour.
d741e3dbd8e402529a…dc407c345bThe verdict, reasoned out.
Not a rules engine. The MT AI Engine reads every signal we collected, weighs them against history, and commits to an answer.
The combination of tier-1 detections, an offensive MITRE technique, and lack of any signing history outweighs the clean reports from other tier-1 engines. The file is relatively new with medium prevalence and no prior similar-hash matches, leaving insufficient ground to call it clean. The Nuitka label appears tied to the compiler rather than a specific malware family, but the injection behaviour remains a concrete risk indicator.
Each signal cites a concrete token from the evidence the arbiter saw — engine name, MITRE technique, signer string, or an exact count.

What this file did when executed
This file was detonated in 1 sandbox and its runtime behaviour was observed.
Adversary techniques mapped to the MITRE ATT&CK framework.
YARA + heuristic rules that fired
A researcher-curated or high-severity heuristic rule matched this sample. These rules target specific malware families and are near-definitive.
MITRE T1055 (Process Injection) observed — CreateRemoteThread / APC / reflective-DLL injection. The payload is being smuggled into a legitimate process to bypass AV hooks.

Section entropy & packers
Section-level entropy and packer detection from the PE header. Nothing suspicious here — entropy is within the normal range for unpacked code.
How often this file shows up in the wild
Moderate prevalence — neither rare nor common. No strong prior applies.

Safety FAQ
Common questions about Trinity.exe, answered from the scan data above.
- Trinity.exe is suspicious — treat it as unsafe until you're sure. 12 of 74 antivirus engines flag it (family: nuitka), which isn't a strong consensus but is enough to be cautious. Don't run it unless you fully trust where it came from, and prefer downloading the software fresh from its official site.
- Trinity.exe is a Windows executable program, about 26.3 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.
- 12 of 74 antivirus engines flagged Trinity.exe, 12 of them as outright malicious. A small number of detections can include false positives, so we weigh which engines flagged it and what else the file does, not just the raw count.
- 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.
- To remove Trinity.exe: 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 the original Trinity.exe file and empty the Recycle Bin/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.
- Trinity.exe is classified as a trojan — malware disguised as something harmless to trick you into running it. Engines attribute it to the nuitka 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.
- The SHA-256 hash of Trinity.exe is d741e3dbd8e402529af44d3ca1748a21127ae9f8c0e51e9cdf2ba6dc407c345b, and its MD5 is f1fef6a2db891093237d3e0a47b1f07e. 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.
- This report reflects the scan run on July 11, 2026. Because a file's hash never changes, the identity of Trinity.exe 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.
