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

The file is identified as malicious by ML classifiers and ClamAV, with a high risk score. It contains embedded URLs, one of which, https://golowaki.ru/aws?utm_term=effective+leadership+and+management+in+nursing+sullivan+8th+edition, is directly referenced in the heuristics. The document body, though heavily obfuscated, suggests a lure related to academic material, likely intended to trick users into clicking the malicious link. No scripts were extracted, but the presence of external URIs and the overall detection profile strongly indicate a phishing or malware distribution attempt.

  • 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.
