MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1204.002 Malicious File

This PDF document employs social engineering tactics, specifically a 'ClickFix' lure, to trick users into executing commands. The document body and embedded URLs promote fake game hacks and free accounts, aiming to entice users to download further malicious content. The heuristic firings indicate the document is designed to bypass macro restrictions by instructing users to manually run commands, likely leading to the download and execution of a second-stage payload.

Machine Learning

  • Nyx PDF Classifier malicious score 0.9278

Heuristics 5

  • ClickFix social engineering attack high SE_CLICKFIX
    Document instructs the user to press Win+R or paste a command into a terminal — consistent with ClickFix attacks that bypass macro restrictions by tricking users into running malicious commands directly
  • Password-protected archive handoff high SE_PASSWORD_ARCHIVE_LURE
    Document gives password instructions for an archive or attachment — often used to keep payloads encrypted until after gateway scanning
  • Visual download / call-to-action button lure low SE_DOWNLOAD_BUTTON
    Document contains a call-to-action phrase ('Click here to download', 'Download Now', etc.) — low-signal unless other findings point to a malicious workflow
  • External URI info PDF_URI
    PDF contains an external URL action
  • Embedded URL info EMBEDDED_URL
    One or more URLs were extracted from the document. The URL itself is not a detection — see the per-URL labels for which channel (macro, JS, link annotation, document body, ...) reached each URL.
