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

The PDF document contains heuristics indicating it is malicious, including an external URI pointing to a suspicious domain and a machine learning classifier flagging it as malicious. The document body and embedded links suggest a lure to download a file, likely a second-stage payload, related to game cheats or hacks. The presence of a QR code lure and a visual download button further supports this attack pattern.

Machine Learning

  • Nyx PDF Classifier malicious score 0.9648

Heuristics 4

  • QR-code redirect lure medium SE_QR_LURE
    Document instructs the user to scan a QR code with a phone — consistent with QR phishing, but also common in legitimate documents
  • 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.
