wf_vericts json file verdict values?

L0 Member

Exported wf_verdicts.db from an endpoint to validate local verdicts. Is there any reference for return codes and their meanings?

 

example:

"value": {
"verdict": 3,
"lruData": {
"lastUsed": "1613061210",
"index": "65945"

The verdicts handling was changed in version 7.2.

 

To check (verify) the verdict on the agent.

  1. Export the entire wf_verdicts.db using cytool command: cytool persist export wf_verdicts.
  2. Open the resulted JSON file using Text editor and search on the hash

Verdicts:
Invalid = 0,
Benign = 1,
Malware = 2,
Unknown = 3,
Grayware = 4,
NoConnection = 5

Hi @JoeDay,

 

It appears that you are trying to collect the local verdict for a file on an endpoint by extracting the wf_verdicts.db file. Currently, there's no public documentation available to share regarding the file. Would you like to explain that goal that you have in mind that would potentially utilize this information?

Hi,

 

I'd also like to point out that the local hash cache can be queried on Windows Endpoints using the following command which is more user-friendly than viewing the db file.

 

    cytool wf query [<hash>]

 

Note: The supervisor password is required to issue this command.
