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

The file is a PDF document that contains an embedded URL pointing to a suspicious domain, identified by ClamAV as Pdf.Phishing.Trojan. The ML classifier also flagged this PDF as malicious. The document body, though heavily obfuscated, appears to contain metadata related to the wkhtmltopdf tool and a date, suggesting it might be a lure document. No scripts were extracted, but the presence of a malicious URL and the high confidence detection scores indicate a phishing 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.
