T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution

The file was detected by ClamAV as Pdf.Phishing.Trojan, indicating a phishing attempt. The presence of an embedded URL, although marked as benign, suggests an attempt to redirect the user. The PDF structure and the nature of the detection point towards an exploit being used to deliver a malicious payload, likely for phishing purposes.

  • 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.
