MITRE ATT&CK
T1204.002 Malicious File: User Execution T1059.003 Command and Scripting Interpreter: Windows Command Shell

The PDF file contains a malicious URI that leverages command injection to execute arbitrary commands. Specifically, it attempts to disable the firewall using 'netsh', download a file named 'system.com' from '81.95.146.181' via FTP, and then execute it. The ML classifier and ClamAV detection strongly indicate malicious intent, classifying it as Pdf.Exploit.Agent-34360.

  • PDF URI references command interpreter path high PDF_DANGEROUS_URI_COMMAND
    PDF contains a /URI action whose target uses a mailto/path traversal shape and references a command interpreter or scripting host. This is not a normal web link and matches legacy PDF command execution/dropper lures.
  • External URI low 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.
