MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

This PDF document exhibits characteristics of an advance-fee scam, employing lures related to lotteries and prize money, coupled with demands for parcel delivery. While no scripts were extracted, the presence of embedded URLs and the ML classifier's flagging suggest a malicious intent to deceive the user. The document's structure and content align with phishing tactics, likely delivered as a spearphishing attachment.

  • Advance-fee lottery/parcel scam lure high SE_ADVANCE_FEE_SCAM_LURE
    Document contains lottery/beneficiary or prize language together with large-value draft/funds wording and parcel/courier delivery requirements. This is a classic advance-fee fraud document shape.
  • 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.
