T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1059.007 JavaScript

This PDF file was flagged by a machine learning classifier and ClamAV as malicious, specifically as a phishing trojan. The document body, though heavily obfuscated, contains references to 'Casualty loss form irs' and is associated with the URL 'https://traffine.ru/aws?utm_term=casualty+loss+form+irs', suggesting a phishing attempt to trick users into believing it is an official IRS document. The presence of embedded URLs and the nature of the detection indicate a likely attempt to deliver a malicious payload or redirect the user to a phishing site.

  • 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.
