JokerSpy samples submitted a week ago but not processed

anthonyqian

Hi,

I often send malware samples that F-Secure does not detect via the SAS page. About a week ago, I sent some JokerSpy samples (https://www.bitdefender.com/blog/labs/fragments-of-cross-platform-backdoor-hint-at-larger-mac-os-attack/) that F-Secure missed, with the submission number xxxxxxxx. These samples remain undetected.

At the same time, I also sent a ransomware script sample with the submission number xxxxxxx, but it has not been processed either.

I want to know what is happening with my submission and how soon these malicious samples will be detected.

Thank you.

Hi Firmly,

Thank you for your response. I have been waiting for another three days, but unfortunately, there haven't been any updates from the analyst yet.

Could you please let me know how much longer I should expect to wait and if everything is going smoothly? It seems unusual that the analysis has taken half a month.

Thanks.

Anthony
