MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1059.007 JavaScript

The PDF contains invisible links that lead to a CAPTCHA-themed lure, specifically pointing to 'https://s3.amazonaws.com/tumasun/captcha_background_images.pdf'. One of the embedded URIs, 'https://nipisod.ru/award?keyword=conjunction+exercise+for+class+4+pdf', is also suspicious. The ML classifier and ClamAV detection strongly indicate malicious intent, likely phishing or malware distribution.

  • ClamAV: Pdf.Phishing.Trojan-d2528dad23a95d95-d2528dad23a95d95-10044376-0 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION

  • Invisible PDF links to CAPTCHA-themed web lure high PDF_CAPTCHA_LINK_LURE
    PDF contains invisible clickable link annotations that point to a CAPTCHA/capcha-themed web path. This is a common phishing and ClickFix-style routing pattern: the PDF itself is inert, while the linked page performs the credential prompt or fake verification.
  • 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.
