Many thanks Ralf for the speedy reply.

Is it then triggered if the three strings (urldecode, msbuild.exe, .xml) are all present anywhere in a normalised ASCII file?

# sigtool --find="Vbs.Trojan.AsyncRAT-9889434-1" | sigtool --decode

VIRUS NAME: Vbs.Trojan.AsyncRAT-9889434-1
TDB: Engine:90-255,FileSize:0-2097152,Target:7

LOGICAL EXPRESSION: 0&1&2
* SUBSIG ID 0
+-> OFFSET: ANY
+-> SIGMOD: NONE
+-> DECODED SUBSIGNATURE:
urldecode

* SUBSIG ID 1
+-> OFFSET: ANY
+-> SIGMOD: NONE
+-> DECODED SUBSIGNATURE:
msbuild.exe

* SUBSIG ID 2
+-> OFFSET: ANY
+-> SIGMOD: NONE
+-> DECODED SUBSIGNATURE:
.xml

So it must be 0 AND 1 and 2.

0 is urldecode ANYWHERE
1 is msbuild.exe ANYWHERE
2 is .xml ANYWHERE

Nope.
