MITRE ATT&CK

T1059.007 JavaScript T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution

The PDF contains JavaScript that executes automatically upon opening. This script displays a fake Adobe Acrobat Updater prompt to the user and then attempts to submit form data to 'http://report-scam.malwarebouncer.com/XcmVcjaXBpZWs50X2lkPTuM4Mjg4GDNjM4xMSZjYW1wsYWGlnbl9ydW5faWQ9MTQ4hNzkzMyZhY3Rpb249YXR0YWNobWVudA==#FDF'. This indicates a social engineering attack designed to lure the user into interacting with malicious content, likely to download a secondary payload.

Heuristics 8

PDF auto-runs JavaScript form submission on open critical PDF_OPENACTION_JS_SUBMITFORM

PDF uses /OpenAction to run JavaScript that calls submitForm() with an external HTTP(S) URL. Opening the document triggers the outbound submission path without requiring a normal link click.
PDF JavaScript shows fake Acrobat updater prompt high PDF_FAKE_ACROBAT_UPDATE_LURE

PDF JavaScript displays Acrobat/update-themed language such as a document rendering engine update or remote connection to Adobe servers. When paired with JavaScript or external submission, this is a social-engineering lure rather than benign document text.
JavaScript action low PDF_JAVASCRIPT

PDF contains a /JavaScript action. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
Embedded JS stream low PDF_JS

PDF references a /JS stream. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
Visual download / call-to-action button lure low SE_DOWNLOAD_BUTTON

Document contains a call-to-action phrase ('Click here to download', 'Download Now', etc.) — low-signal unless other findings point to a malicious workflow
External URI info PDF_URI

PDF contains an external URL action
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.
