EnigmaSoft Threat Scorecard
EnigmaSoft Threat Scorecards are assessment reports for different malware threats which have been collected and analyzed by our research team. EnigmaSoft Threat Scorecards evaluate and rank threats using several metrics including real-world and potential risk factors, trends, frequency, prevalence, and persistence. EnigmaSoft Threat Scorecards are updated regularly based on our research data and metrics and are useful for a wide range of computer users, from end users seeking solutions to remove malware from their systems to security experts analyzing threats.
EnigmaSoft Threat Scorecards display a variety of useful information, including:
Ranking: The ranking of a particular threat in EnigmaSoft’s Threat Database.
Severity Level: The determined severity level of an object, represented numerically, based on our risk modeling process and research, as explained in our Threat Assessment Criteria.
Infected Computers: The number of confirmed and suspected cases of a particular threat detected on infected computers as reported by SpyHunter.

Woreflint is a hurtful threat that could possess various, threatening capabilities. In general, Trojan malware threats are often designed to perform a wide range of intrusive actions. They may be equipped with backdoor functionality, may have the ability to run keylogging routines, act as clippers, info-stealers, and as a mid-stage threat responsible for fetching and delivering additional damaging payloads.
Infosec researchers first noticed the Woreflint threat back in 2018. Since then, multiple, different versions with a varying range of features have been released by cybercriminals. Some of the identified Woreflint versions include:
Trojan:Win32/Woreflint.A
Trojan:Win32/Woreflint.A!cl
Trojan:Script/Woreflint.A!cl
Trojan:Script/Woreflint.A!rfn
Trojan:Script/Woreflint.A!ctv
Trojan:Win32/Woreflint!MTB
Trojan:Win32/Woreflint.A!MTB
Trojan:Script/Woreflint.A!MSR
Trojan:Win32/Woreflint.AK!MTB
Versions with Script in their detection's name could be injected into compromised or outright corrupted websites. In other cases, users reported that Woreflint versions were detected by their anti-malware security solutions in their browser cache.
In some cases, anti-virus and anti-malware tools may incorrectly flag a file, due to its behavior matching in part that of a real malware threat. In these cases, the detection may be a false positive. For example, reports claimed that files for games downloaded from the official Steam platform were detected as being infected with Trojan:Win32/Woreflint.A!cl. It is highly unlikely for these files to contain harmful threats. However, users should still investigate any flagged items for suspicious behavior or details.
