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

The file is a PDF document identified as malicious by ML classifiers and ClamAV, specifically as a phishing trojan. It contains numerous embedded URLs, one of which, 'https://jacksth.ru/aws?utm_term=android+auto+aggiornamento+4.+4', is directly associated with the lure of an 'Android Auto' update. While no scripts were explicitly extracted, the presence of embedded URLs and the nature of the detection suggest the document is designed to trick users into downloading further malicious content, likely through a spearphishing attachment vector.

  • 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.
