Is REPENTOGONLauncher.zip safe?
No antivirus detections, clean host reputation, and no malicious children after sandbox execution.
75 engines reported zero malicious detections. Sandbox execution produced no malicious verdict and contacted hosts carry no prior malicious flags. Medium prevalence and absence of external-intel hits support a clean classification.

The reasoning behind this verdict
This section explains the evidence supporting the verdict and keeps conflicting or missing signals visible.
75 engines reported zero malicious detections. Sandbox execution produced no malicious verdict and contacted hosts carry no prior malicious flags. Medium prevalence and absence of external-intel hits support a clean classification.
Zero detections across 75 reporting engines, including 17 tier-1 engines, removes the primary malicious signal. Sandbox execution surfaced four MITRE techniques but returned no malicious verdict and the no complete contacted-host reputation result was available. Ten dropped children were inspected with none flagged malicious. Medium prevalence and six-day age are consistent with a legitimate new release rather than a rare malicious sample.
What We Detected
75 antivirus engines scanned the ZIP archive; none returned a malicious or suspicious result. Sandbox execution extracted and ran the contained launcher, writing ten files and contacting five external no complete contacted-host reputation result was available in our host cache.
Threat Behavior
Observed MITRE techniques (T1055, T1543.002, T1560, T1562.001) are consistent with a self-updating game launcher that injects into its own process and manages persistence. No command-and-control domains, no malicious dropped children, and no external-intel hits were recorded.
What To Do Now
The file can be considered safe for use. Continue to keep endpoint protection enabled and only download launchers from the official TeamREPENTOGON repository.
Where this verdict could be wrong1 caveat
- Sandbox observed MITRE T1055 (Process Injection) and direct-IP contacts, but sandboxVerdicts empty and no complete contacted-host reputation result was available.
These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.
- Zero detections across 75 engines
- Clean contacted-host reputation
- No malicious dropped children
- Medium prevalence with no external-intel hits
The archive shows no malicious indicators; proceed with normal usage while keeping security software active.

The available sources did not agree on a named threat category.
MalwareBazaar, YARAify, and CIRCL hashlookup completed and returned no entries for this hash.
Signatures and behavior heuristics
A community signature or high-severity behavioral heuristic matched. Signatures identify known patterns; heuristics are strong leads but are not proof on their own.
The saved runtime evidence maps this activity to MITRE T1055 (Process Injection). The mapping supports possible process injection, but it does not prove the exact injection method or the operator's intent.
Evidence"C:\Users\<USER>\AppData\Local\Temp\REPENTOGONLauncher.exe"The sample contacted an external IP address directly and no application domain was recorded. Direct-IP traffic also occurs in legitimate installers and infrastructure, so this is supporting context only and requires corroboration from host reputation and other runtime evidence.
