T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment
The PDF file exhibits multiple high-severity heuristic firings, including PDF_RICHMEDIA and PDF_EVAL, indicating the presence of potentially malicious content. An embedded JavaScript stream and a Flash object (SWF) were extracted, suggesting an attempt to execute code or exploit vulnerabilities. The ClamAV detection for 'Heuristics.PDF.ObfuscatedNameObject' further supports the malicious nature of the file. The presence of these embedded artifacts points towards a delivery mechanism for further malicious activity.
Heuristics 7
-
ClamAV: Heuristics.PDF.ObfuscatedNameObject critical CLAMAV_DETECTIONClamAV detected this file as malware: Heuristics.PDF.ObfuscatedNameObject
-
RichMedia (Flash) high PDF_RICHMEDIAPDF contains /RichMedia (Adobe Flash) which is a historic exploit vector
-
eval() call high PDF_EVALeval() found — commonly used for obfuscated exploit execution
-
JavaScript action low PDF_JAVASCRIPTPDF contains a /JavaScript action. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
-
Embedded JS stream low PDF_JSPDF references a /JS stream. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
-
Embedded file low PDF_EMBEDDEDPDF embeds a file attachment — could carry an executable or another weaponised document as a nested payload
-
