MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.002 Spearphishing Attachment
T1204.002 Malicious Link
The PDF exhibits characteristics of a phishing lure, including being image-heavy with a single text block and containing a click-outward action. It also contains embedded files and JavaScript, suggesting it's designed to deliver a secondary payload or exploit. The presence of RichMedia and XFA elements, along with multiple embedded files, indicates a complex attack vector.
Heuristics 8
-
Secondary embedded PDF body has suspicious static findings critical POLYGLOT_CHILD_PDF_STATIC_TRIAGEA valid PDF body was found at a nonzero offset inside another container and its carved contents matched PDF exploit or lure heuristics. This catches polyglots where the top-level magic routes to ZIP/OLE while a PDF reader or downstream parser opens the hidden PDF payload.
-
RichMedia (Flash) high PDF_RICHMEDIAPDF contains /RichMedia (Adobe Flash) which is a historic exploit vector (matched inside decoded stream)
-
Image-only document with action trigger (screenshot lure) medium PDF_IMAGE_LUREPDF has 2 image(s), only 1 text block(s), carries a click-outward action, and is only 88 KB — typical shape of a phishing lure where a full-page screenshot hides a clickable button that launches or submits to an attacker URL.
-
Embedded file low PDF_EMBEDDEDPDF embeds a file attachment — could carry an executable or another weaponised document as a nested payload
-
JavaScript action low PDF_JAVASCRIPTPDF contains a /JavaScript action. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules. (matched inside decoded stream)
-
Embedded JS stream low PDF_JSPDF references a /JS stream. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules. (matched inside decoded stream)
-
XFA form low PDF_XFAPDF uses XML Forms Architecture — can contain script logic (matched inside decoded stream)
-
Embedded URL info EMBEDDED_URLOne 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.URL http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#
