MT AI Engine · Verdict analysis

The reasoning behind this verdict

The MT AI Engine weighs every signal from this scan — antivirus detections, sandbox behaviour, code signing, prevalence and historical matches — to reach a single, evidence-based verdict.

65%Confidence
High
Reasoning

The complete absence of engine detections, including 17 tier-1 clean reports, is a strong safe signal. However, the sandbox captured three offensive MITRE techniques and direct-IP C2 behaviour that triggered high-severity heuristics. Being unsigned with no signer history removes the usual trust anchor for installers. Medium prevalence and clean dropped children prevent a malicious call, but the behavioural mismatch keeps the file in mixed-signals territory.

Key signals · 5

Each signal cites a concrete token from the evidence the arbiter saw — engine name, MITRE technique, signer string, or an exact count.

  1. engines: 0 malicious detections, 17 tier-1 clean reports

  2. behaviour.offensiveTechniques: T1055, T1543.002, T1562.001

  3. behaviour.contactedIps: 162.159.36.2 (direct IP, no DNS)

  4. signing.verified: false (unsigned JAR)

  5. triggeredHeuristics: MalwareTips.Synth.ProcessInjection (high severity)

Points in its favour
  • Zero detections across 65 reporting engines
  • 17 tier-1 engines reported clean
  • No malicious dropped children
  • Medium prevalence across 27 submitters
Points against
  • Unsigned JAR with no signer history
  • Sandbox observed T1055 process injection
  • Direct-IP contact without DNS resolution
  • Persistence indicators via T1543.002
Recommended action

Treat as untrusted until the behavioural signals can be attributed to legitimate mod-loader activity; do not execute on production systems without isolation.

What this file does

What it attempted when executed in an isolated sandbox

  • High concern: Hides inside another running program to evade antivirus.

  • High concern: Downloads more malware onto your PC.

  • High concern: Installs itself as a Windows service to stay running.

  • High concern: Tries to disable or bypass your security software.

  • Moderate concern: Runs hidden system commands (script or shell).

  • Moderate concern: Checks whether it's being watched in a sandbox before acting.

  • Moderate concern: Checks which security software you have installed.

What to do now

We couldn't fully clear this file. Treat it with caution.

  1. Don't run it unless you're certain it came from a source you trust.

  2. Check where you got it — an email attachment or a random download link is a red flag.

  3. If you're unsure, delete it. You can always re-download a clean copy from the official source.

  4. If you're still unsure, scan it again in a day or two — detections often catch up on newer files.

  • ProcessInjectionhigh

    MITRE T1055 (Process Injection) observed — CreateRemoteThread / APC / reflective-DLL injection. The payload is being smuggled into a legitimate process to bypass AV hooks.

  • DirectIpC2medium

    Sample contacted 1 external IP address(es) and zero domains. Benign software virtually always uses DNS; no-DNS direct-IP C2 is a strong malware indicator because it bypasses reputation systems and dodges domain-based blocklists.

Safety FAQ

Common questions about Jenny-Mod-Installer-26.2.jar, answered from the scan data above.

  • Jenny-Mod-Installer-26.2.jar is suspicious — treat it as unsafe until you're sure. 0 of 74 antivirus engines flag it, 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.
  • Jenny-Mod-Installer-26.2.jar is a software installer, about 31.8 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.
  • None — all 74 antivirus engines we queried report Jenny-Mod-Installer-26.2.jar as clean. That's reassuring, though brand-new malware can briefly evade detection before vendors add signatures, so we also weigh the file's behaviour and reputation.
  • 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 Jenny-Mod-Installer-26.2.jar: 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 Jenny-Mod-Installer-26.2.jar 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.
  • The SHA-256 hash of Jenny-Mod-Installer-26.2.jar is f384ff363b4fbf522f2dd8a814d08567093d332a141fc025452bf56208da89b7, and its MD5 is b2b3698fa9ec71b3d2a1927162196ad6. 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 20, 2026. Because a file's hash never changes, the identity of Jenny-Mod-Installer-26.2.jar 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.

Files are processed in a streaming pass-through — MalwareTips never stores the binary on its servers. Only the scan result (hash, detections, verdict) is retained so the next person who scans the same file gets an instant answer. If you ran this file on your computer and are worried, scan your system with an up-to-date antivirus and change critical passwords from a different device.
