Why we think so
3 points against it and 5 in its favour, checked against the scan evidence.
The reasoning behind this verdict
None of the 65 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the file, including 16 major antivirus engines, and it has appeared across 284 sources.
The strongest evidence is broad antivirus silence: none of the 65 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the JAR, including all 16 major antivirus engines that reported. The file is also well established, with 304 submissions from 284 sources, reducing concern that it is an unrecognized new sample. One completed sandbox run returned clean and recorded no sample network contacts, persistence indicators, injection targets, or registry changes. However, the runtime mapping includes and T1543.002, so the behavioral picture is not entirely uneventful. No malware-specific research rules or repository match corroborated those mappings, and no file it created has a saved malicious verdict.
What We Detected
None of the 65 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the JAR, including 16 major antivirus engines such as BitDefender, ESET, Kaspersky, Microsoft, and Fortinet. The file is established across 284 sources and 304 submissions, and no malware-specific research rule or malware-repository match was found.
Threat Behavior
One completed sandbox run returned clean and recorded no sample network contacts, process injection, persistence indicators, or registry changes. It did map T1562.001 and T1543.002, which are associated with defense impairment and systemd service activity, but the supplied process details include Java execution and Linux log-rotation activity rather than confirmed hostile actions. Five dropped files remain unclassified, and no complete contacted-host reputation result is available.
What To Do Now
Use the JAR only if it came from the expected project or mod distribution channel, and keep security software enabled. Back up the relevant game profile before installation and avoid granting unnecessary elevated privileges.
Where this verdict could be wrong3 caveats
- The runtime mapping includes T1562.001, associated with impairing defenses, and T1543.002, associated with systemd service activity; these mappings warrant caution despite the clean sandbox result.
- Five dropped files lack saved verdicts, so their contents remain unclassified.
- A complete reputation check was not available for contacted hosts, although the observed run recorded no sample network contacts.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- None of the 65 antivirus engines that checked it flagged the file.
- All 16 reporting major antivirus engines returned no detection.
- The file has been submitted 304 times from 284 distinct sources.
- The completed sandbox run returned clean and showed no sample network contacts.
- No malware-specific research rules or malware-repository match were found.
- The test run mapped techniques associated with impairing defenses and systemd service activity.
- Five files created or extracted during analysis do not have saved classifications.
- No complete reputation cross-check is available for contacted hosts.
