![]() ![]() ![]() Most antiviruses fail to provide exact "diagnosis" and a "cure". If detecting malware is "science", at least an exact "diagnosis" and eventually a "cure" should be provided. ![]() For this reason and in this thread AvinashR in his first post wrote a phrase in bold. It's great to be able to flag millions of files as malware without actually analyzing them, isn't it? And of course nobody can tell them nothing because then.there is the politically correct anti-piracy crowd that will call you without much of a thought a pirate. It's just plain and good old laziness, lack of resources and efforts to cut badgets. My opinion is that behind this there is no conspiracy or fancy theories. Now about the issue AVs detecting all keygens as malware. If you don't trust or don't use the keygens you are more safe. I have also seen some keygens which have a suspicious or malformed PE header, which can also cause it to be flagged as malicious due to smart heuristics which attempt to prevent file infectors and other bad files executing.Ĭlick to expand.You are wrong but actually it's great to be wrong this way. Some av companies impose a policy of detecting keygens and cracks especially for this reason (mainly if their clients are corporate, in which case they would especially not want any illegal content such as cracks on their network, due to the legal implications).the main difference being some detect it as an "optional" category such as a PUP whilst others label it as a default threat which will be dealt with regardless of user input. besides, the user can create a local override for any particular detection in most cases anyway.Īlso of note is the fact that cracks/keygens are a very enticing opportunity for malware writers to spread their creations.after all, how else could you willingly get people to run unknown executable code on their computers! In this case some antivirus companies may remove detection for particular keygens but keep the general packer detection algorithm.or refuse to remove detections for keygens as these programs have no legitimate function, it is a waste of manpower/resources and leads to a bloating of the AV database if the file is stored in a local whitelist. This basically poses an issue to antivirus companies which use a blanket detection on some packers which have a high malware to genuine use ratio. Keygens and cracks use exotic packers that are sometimes also frequently used by malware authors (after all, why would the "scene" want to share their secrets). For all we know it could be sandbox aware and refuse to do anything dangerous in order to avoid detection.Ģ. Analysing a sample in a public sandbox does not prove it "does nothing".it just proves that this file does nothing in a sandbox environment.
