MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1204.002 Malicious Link

The PDF document contains heuristics indicating it presents a fake CAPTCHA and a download lure, aiming to trick users into installing a browser extension or update. The embedded URL points to a suspicious domain, likely serving as the download source for malicious content. While no scripts were directly extracted, the PDF structure and embedded URI suggest a social engineering attack designed to lead the user to a malicious download.

  • Payment redirection / bank-detail change lure high SE_PAYMENT_REDIRECT_LURE
