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

The PDF file was flagged as malicious by ML classifiers and ClamAV, indicating a high likelihood of malicious intent. It contains an embedded URI pointing to 'https://chcial.ru/pbw?utm_term=the+easy+way+%2528easy+way%2529+to+stop+smoking+-+allen+carr', which is likely used for phishing or to download a secondary payload. The document body is heavily obfuscated and unreadable, providing no further context on the specific lure.

  • 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.
