What is a jfif file?
I downloaded this pic
>>>/v/681511703
What if its a backdoor file, malware? Something hidden in it?

Downloaded it and it chamged into jpeg, virus load? The code activating? Whats going on?
>>
Spying on me?
>>
Malware packed in jpg or jfif packed ready tp attack
>>
Hello can someone tell me if that file is evil and hiding
>>
>>101246161
>installed a VM to download file securely
>i uploaded it to virustotal as an jpeg
>no virus
>i uploaded it literally as it is (jiff)
>virus total flag malware, 32/60 flagged malware
>trojan and backdoor alert

hopefully you removed it by now already
maybe it's not anything too serious and can be removed, get windows security to run a full scan, if it doesn't flag anything then it's because it's trying to hide
i'd recommend installing malwarebites and if necessary getting a paid subscription (i think there's a plan for a month that doesn't cost too much)

if you need any help along the way you can post it here i can try to help
>>
>>101246453
forgot to say, you might wanna do an offline scan before you do the full scan, it usually notices some malware that use your internet connection to block protection
>>
>>101246453
Is that so? Please show me the scan i cant get the courage to docit nyself i must be infected by now i got the idea and had to cut power but it was too late
Please send me the results post them here in the thread what can be done

I had never seen ever ever jfif until today now i see 2
Whata going on?

HOLY FUCK
JFIF?
>>
>>101247054
jpg is likely to be safe, but the one i test was as (OP) stated, it was a jiff that ran code and renamed to jpg and that's the one that was clear.
You're probably fine anon, but try to upload your jpg file (if you still have it) to virustotal.com and report to us
>>
>>101246941
Wow, that's a serious one.
>>101247054
OP do NOT turn that computer back on, it's probably in a lot of your files by now. You'll have to do an offline scan with the Alibaba rescue CD. Do you have other computers around the house?

I never saw jfif until today

Be careful, this stuff can infect your phone as well. Works through thumbnails too. These images exploit a vulnerability in the libjpeg JFIFv2 scRGB decoder that was discovered recently. It isn't 100% reliable so you should be okay, unless your phone is getting hot or something.
>>
>>101247273
Bro I LITERALLY JUST DOWNLOADED IT THROUGH MY PHON CUS I THOUGHT IT WAS FINE ON ANDROID

I think it's a getting a bit hot (maybe it's just placebo) but please help, what should i do?

Okay, that's not great, but don't panic. The vulnerability was introduced around 2014, so just use a computer older than that to scan and disinfect your files. And, uh, remove your SIM and your phone's battery right now, and use a phone older than that from now on.
>>
>>101247348
>don't have a pc that old
>can't remove battery (fucking new phones)
It's booted off but I'm afraid it already got into my email and got my passwords or something.

It's not that uncommon, there are many things you probably haven't seen before, such as:

Pussy.

>>101247547
Shut up scrote now tell me
Is the jfif really a virus?
>>
>>101247574
Are you fucking braindead??? Look it up online or at LEAST scroll up.


NO IT IS NOT. But very well could be, which was the case for the file in the post OP downloaded

Im op
Can you confirm the jfif having a virus

What the actual *FUCK* is this thread? There used to be facilities built just to remove and house patients like this away from society, and even then most of those patients didn’t exhibit this kind of deluded and anti social behavior. Who or what the fuck even raised you people? This fucking website isn’t your mental daycare. You either have too much time on your hands in which case you need to meet and make friends, or you’re genuinely sick and need to meet and make friends with doctors. It’s frightening to even think you people are out there. Fuck off

Tje JFIF file (unaltered) had a virus. Maybe you're uploading the jpg and that's why it's a bigger size? I highly doubt the virus is enconded within the image file anyways, it likely just runs a script to grab malware online to run on pc, hence the jfif being so small.

Some nigga is asking for help cus he got infected with malware.

What does your reply contribute to the threat. Yeah that's what i thought, you can go ahead and rope, in front of your parents as well

The JFIF you linked to was definitely a virus. It's hidden so most antivirus software won't see it, but if you know how to analyze it yourself you can see some very subtle signs of malware.

>>101246161
relax you dumbass, the rest of the anons are just fucking with you and they probably don't even know either
jfif is literally just another kind of jpeg
i think there might be a minor codec difference (like how animated PNGs/APNGs are still encoded as pngs) but file type/mime type detection considers it a jpeg which is why it got renamed
>>
>>101248277
oh yea here it is
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JPEG_File_Interchange_Format
it's an additional specification on top of jpeg that adds more detail to some sections of the spec
i found this just by googling jfif, did you even try to do that?

that's not to say you don't have to worry about viruses in images but the vulnerabilities always get fixed very quickly
i don't think there's been anything in libjpeg for a long time now, looking it up it says the last arbitrary code execution vuln was in 2020 so you're almost certainly safe
>>
>>101248304
there's NO FUCKING WAY you're OP and this is actually real
a literal inspect element on webdev of a virus test file literally gets you a psychotic episode?

NAH, it's bait, you were baiting with us all along
>>
>>101246161
>What is a jfif file?
A jpg renamed by a retarded web server. Rename it to .jpg and you're done.
