MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1059.007 JavaScript T1140 Deobfuscate/Decode Files or Information

The PDF contains embedded JavaScript, which is often used to execute malicious code or redirect users. The presence of a 'Password-protected archive handoff' heuristic, combined with a 'Callback phishing phone lure', strongly suggests the document is designed to deceive the user into calling a fraudulent support number, likely to obtain credentials or payment, or to download a password-protected malicious archive.

  • Nyx PDF Classifier clean score 0.0002

Heuristics 4

  • 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
  • Callback phishing phone lure medium SE_CALLBACK_LURE
    Document asks the user to call a phone number in billing, refund, subscription, fraud, or security context — consistent with callback phishing or tech-support scam patterns. Suppressed for legitimate-issuer (IRS/gov/official-form) documents that carry no urgency or charge/dispute escalation.
  • Embedded JS stream low PDF_JS
    PDF references a /JS stream. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
  • 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.
