forensicnoob··on Is yt-dlp/yt-dlp compromised?
Look at other tabs https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/3f6ab524d899f39ef46004a9... at the bottom you can see the commands that looks like the program trying to delete down syslogs. Look also in the relations tab that shows some tor nodes.

The last linux binaries ( yt-dlp_linux ) are contacting tor exit nodes and attempting to shutdown syslog starting from release 2024.10.22 according to virustotal.
