MITRE ATT&CK

T1204.002 Malicious File T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The PDF file contains a critical heuristic firing for CVE-2010-0188, indicating an exploit targeting Adobe Reader's LibTIFF XFA image processing. An embedded JavaScript file was also extracted, which likely contains the malicious payload or further stages of the attack. The presence of an embedded file and an XFA form further supports the exploit delivery mechanism. The URL provided appears to be a legitimate XFA schema URL and is unlikely to be directly malicious but is included as it was found within the document.

Heuristics 7

Adobe Reader LibTIFF XFA image exploit — CVE-2010-0188 critical CVE likely CVE_2010_0188

ClamAV: Pdf.Exploit.Agent-36962 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION

ClamAV detected this file as malware: Pdf.Exploit.Agent-36962
Embedded file low PDF_EMBEDDED

PDF embeds a file attachment — could carry an executable or another weaponised document as a nested payload
XFA form low PDF_XFA

PDF uses XML Forms Architecture — can contain script logic
AcroForm button with action trigger low PDF_ACROFORM_BUTTON

PDF contains a /Btn form field together with a SubmitForm/URI/Launch/JS trigger — this is the building block of fake 'Download' or 'Open' button overlays used in PDF phishing lures
Suspicious extracted artifact info EXTRACTED_FILE_STATIC_TRIAGE

One or more files extracted from inside this sample matched static suspicious-content checks such as script obfuscation, encoded payload blobs, packed data, or execution/download terms.
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.
