What to do now4 steps

This file is harmful. Don't run it, and remove it.

If you haven't opened or run it

  1. Don't open or run this Java file. Delete it, then empty the Recycle Bin or Trash.

If you already opened or ran it

  1. Disconnect the device from the internet, then run a full scan with your security software.

  2. If you typed passwords on the device after running it, change them from another device you trust.

  3. If the scan keeps finding it, or the device still acts strangely, scan again with a second-opinion scanner from another company; if that doesn't fix it, back up your personal files and reinstall the operating system.

If you already ran it, do these in order.

MT AI Engine · Verdict analysis

The reasoning behind this verdict

Analyst conclusion

Nine of the 66 antivirus engines that checked it flagged this JAR, including six major detections that broadly identify a Java Agent trojan. One sandbox also returned a malware verdict, although another returned clean, so the evidence from the test run is supportive rather than unanimous.

Where this verdict could be wrong4 caveats
  • Ten major antivirus engines did not flag the file, including Microsoft and BitDefender.
  • The two sandbox runs disagreed, with one returning clean.
  • No malware-specific YARA rules or external-intelligence matches corroborated the detections.
  • None of the eight dropped files has a saved malicious verdict; all eight remain unclassified rather than cleared.

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 the test run showed

What the file did on a test computer

Confirmed in the test run

  • Moderate concern: Contains packed or scrambled code that is harder to inspect (common in installers too).

  • Moderate concern: Ran commands or a script on the test computer.

  • Moderate concern: Hid files or windows on the test computer.

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

  • Note: Loaded extra code modules while running.

  • Note: Checked which security software was installed on the test computer.

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 downloading a file, but no download was recorded.

  • Not confirmed: A sandbox rule tagged this run as creating a service; no new service 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 trojans work

A trojan pretends to be something useful or harmless so that you run it. Once open, it does its real job in the background, from stealing data to opening a back door or downloading more malware.

Bottom line:The disguise is the whole trick, so a trustworthy-looking name or icon means nothing.
