The sample is a PDF document that employs a social engineering lure, instructing the user to install a browser extension or update to view content. This is a common tactic for credential theft or malware installation. The presence of external URIs and a high ML classifier score indicate malicious intent. While no scripts were directly extracted, the PDF structure and embedded URLs suggest it may exploit vulnerabilities or redirect to malicious sites, potentially leading to further payload execution.

  • Browser extension / update installation lure high SE_BROWSER_INSTALL_LURE
    Document tells the user to install a browser extension, plugin, viewer, or browser update to view content — a common social-engineering path for credential theft and malware installation
  • External URI info PDF_URI
    PDF contains an external URL action
  • Object number defined twice with different bodies info PDF_DUPLICATE_OBJ_BODY_INCREMENTAL
    The same indirect object (N G) is defined more than once with different body bytes. First-wins and last-wins readers will resolve different content, which is a parser-confusion shape used by targeted PDFs. Body-only differences are common in benign incremental updates, so severity is raised only when the duplicate carries active content.
  • 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.
