About the issue​

Proprietary ReversingLabs analysis engine supports a wide range of commonly used archive and software packaging formats. Using automated static file decomposition technologies, the engine recursively analyzes complex software packages. Software analysis is typically conducted in multiple steps. Content identification, unpacking, validation, and classification are some of the steps performed on each analyzed file. The analysis engine may sometimes report file integrity problems while performing unpacking or validation steps. In this case, no content was extracted from the package before an analysis error was encountered. This issue is commonly reported for packages with content that may be incomplete or corrupted. In rare occurrences this issue may indicate a problem with the analysis engine's file format parsing functions.

How to resolve the issue​

  • Confirm that the software package contains incomplete or corrupted content.
  • Create a new version of the software package that resolves content integrity issues.
  • Contact the ReversingLabs support team if you suspect that the analysis engine may be causing the issue.

Incidence statistics​

ReversingLabs periodically collects and analyzes the contents of popular software package repositories for threat research purposes. Analysis results are used to calculate incidence statistics for issues (policy violations) that Spectra Assure can detect in software packages.
