MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The PDF file is identified as malicious by multiple heuristics, including ClamAV and an ML classifier. It is an image-only document designed as a lure, containing a clickable link that redirects to a known malicious infrastructure. This suggests a phishing attempt to redirect users to a site that likely hosts further malicious content or exploits.

  • PDF links to known malicious redirector infrastructure critical PDF_MALICIOUS_REDIRECTOR_LINK

  • Image-only document with action trigger (screenshot lure) medium PDF_IMAGE_LURE
    PDF has 1 image(s), only 0 text block(s), carries a click-outward action, and is only 35 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 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.
