T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1204.002 Malicious File

The sample is a PDF document that contains embedded URLs and heuristics indicating a social engineering lure. Specifically, the 'SE_BROWSER_INSTALL_LURE' heuristic suggests the document prompts the user to install a browser extension or update. The presence of external URIs and the ML classifier's positive prediction further support a malicious classification. No scripts were extracted from this sample, limiting the ability to determine the exact payload delivery mechanism.

Machine Learning

  • Nyx PDF Classifier malicious score 0.7268

Heuristics 4

  • 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
  • Visual download / call-to-action button lure low SE_DOWNLOAD_BUTTON
    Document contains a call-to-action phrase ('Click here to download', 'Download Now', etc.) — low-signal unless other findings point to a malicious workflow
  • External URI info PDF_URI
    PDF contains an external URL action
  • 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.
