Insufficient evidence; YARA match is weak and lacks context; no LLM analysis; project has community presence.
No verification record available.
The evidence presented is insufficient to classify pac-resolver version 7.0.1 as malware. The YARA rule 'lowercase_mozilla_val' matching the string mozilla/2.0 in the README.md file is weak evidence. The string itself is a common user agent string and its presence in a README, even if flagged by a noisy YARA rule, doesn't automatically indicate malicious intent. The README might be using this string as an example, for documentation, or in a test scenario. Without further corroborating evidence from static or dynamic analysis revealing malicious code execution or data exfiltration, the classification as malware is premature and unreliable. The lack of LLM-based analysis further weakens the case. The project's GitHub repository (https://github.com/tootallnate/proxy-agents) has a reasonable number of stars and forks, suggesting some level of community scrutiny, although this is not a definitive indicator of safety. The fact that the YARA rule is described as noisy further reduces confidence in its findings.
