Not one of the usual suspects. Clusters of white flowers, small dark red fruit with several seeds. Nine leaflets, not thorny.

Possibly Rosa multiflora

That's what I thought. Is there a key?

Most descriptions of Rosa multiflora say it is thorny, but this is not - maybe some prickles.
Rosa multiflora was widely used in USA until it was recognised as a major invasive plant, now banned in some states.
