MalwareDB

Open-source knowledge management system for bookkeeping malware and goodware file samples.

PlatformWebfree

MalwareDB is an open-source, self-hosted system for cataloging malware, goodware, and unknown file samples. It tracks hashes, origin, and similarity relationships between samples, supports permissioned group access, similarity or Yara-rule search, and optional at-rest encryption so stored samples don't trigger endpoint antivirus. It's aimed at malware researchers and forensic investigators, inspired by tools like VXCage and VirusTotal.
