MT AI Engine · Verdict analysis

The reasoning behind this verdict

Analyst conclusion

It was first seen on Nov 15, 2014 and matches files served by web exploit kits to silently install malware on unpatched systems.

Where this verdict could be wrong1 caveat
  • The sandbox runs produced a clean combined verdict, but the analysis machines likely lacked the vulnerable Flash Player version, so the exploit would have had nothing to trigger.

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

What it did in our test

It ran in 2 isolated tests; no test environment rated what it did as risky.

What the test run showed

What the file did on a test computer

Confirmed in the test run

  • Moderate concern: Used an unusual way to talk to a server.

  • Note: Listed the programs running on the test computer.

  • Note: Talked to servers over the internet during the test run.

  • Note: Read basic details of the test computer, such as its Windows version.

  • Note: Looked through folders on the test computer (most installers do this).

Sandbox labels we could not confirm (common in safe files too)

  • Not confirmed: A sandbox rule tagged this run as code injection, but no injected program was recorded.

  • Not confirmed: A sandbox rule tagged this run as changing how Windows loads code; nothing confirms it.

This file was run on a test computer (a sandbox), not on yours. Labels we could not confirm are listed so you can see them, but they are not treated as evidence against the file.

Threat context

How downloaders work

This file is a delivery vehicle. On its own it can look small and harmless, but its job is to fetch and install the real payload, often a password stealer, ransomware or a bot, from a server the attacker controls.

Bottom line:Because the dangerous part arrives later, early scans can look cleaner than the threat really is.

This report and its SHA-256 fingerprint are public, so the next person who checks the same file gets an instant answer; documents and images are listed by type instead of their file name. A file we had not seen before is uploaded to VirusTotal, whose security partners and subscribers can download it; MalwareTips deletes its own copy after the scan. If you ran this file and are worried, scan your device with up-to-date security software.
