MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1204.002 Malicious File

The sample was identified as malicious by a machine learning classifier and ClamAV with a signature indicating it is a phishing trojan. The PDF contains embedded URLs, though they were classified as benign. No scripts were extracted from this sample, and the document body was unreadable, preventing a more detailed analysis of the lure. The primary threat appears to be the known malicious nature of the PDF itself.

Heuristics 4

  • ClamAV: Pdf.Phishing.Trojan-d2568dad23a94d95-d2568dad23a94d95-10044375-0 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Pdf.Phishing.Trojan-d2568dad23a94d95-d2568dad23a94d95-10044375-0
  • 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.
