MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The file is a PDF that contains embedded URLs, and ClamAV detected it as a phishing trojan. The ML classifier also flagged it as malicious. While no scripts were explicitly extracted, the presence of embedded URLs and the detection results suggest it is designed to lead the user to malicious content, likely for phishing or to download further payloads. The PDF_URI heuristic indicates an external URI was found within the document.

  • 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.
