MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.002 Spearphishing Attachment T1204.002 Malicious Link

The PDF heuristics indicate this is an image-only document with a click-outward action, typical of a phishing lure. ClamAV detection confirms its malicious nature as a dropper. Although no specific URLs were found to be malicious, the overall structure and detection strongly suggest a phishing attack pattern.

    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.
