MITRE ATT&CK
T1204.002 Malicious File

The ML classifier strongly indicates this PDF is malicious. It contains an embedded file, which is a common technique for delivering secondary payloads. The embedded file itself was flagged as a suspicious artifact during static triage due to its size and encoding.

Machine Learning

  • Nyx PDF Classifier malicious score 1.0000

Heuristics 4

  • 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
  • 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.
