MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1059.007 JavaScript

The PDF file contains heuristics indicating it is malicious and a phishing attempt. It embeds external URIs, with the primary one being 'https://nipisod.ru/strik?utm_term=how+to+fix+samsung+smart+tv+not+turning+on', suggesting a lure related to fixing a Samsung smart TV. Several other unknown reputation URLs were also extracted, indicating potential redirection or payload delivery. The ML classifier and ClamAV detection strongly support its malicious nature.

  • 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.
