T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment
The PDF file was flagged by a machine learning classifier and ClamAV as malicious, specifically as a phishing trojan. It contains embedded URLs, one of which is a Google feedproxy URL that redirects to a Squarespace page. While the document body is heavily obfuscated, the presence of these indicators suggests a phishing or malware distribution attempt, likely leveraging social engineering to trick users into clicking the embedded links.

External URI info PDF_URIPDF contains an external URL action
-
Object number defined twice with different bodies info PDF_DUPLICATE_OBJ_BODY_INCREMENTALThe 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_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 https://feedproxy.google.com/~r/sq/ugae/~3/cEZ-xJcQpFE/square?utm_term=how+to+retrieve+work+not+saved+on+word
