T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The PDF document was flagged by a machine learning classifier and ClamAV as malicious, exhibiting characteristics of an advance-fee scam. The document's content, though heavily obfuscated in the provided excerpt, likely serves as a lure for a fraudulent scheme involving lottery winnings or parcel delivery. No scripts were extracted, and the embedded URLs, while numerous, were predominantly classified as benign.

  • Advance-fee lottery/parcel scam lure high SE_ADVANCE_FEE_SCAM_LURE
    Document contains lottery/beneficiary or prize language together with large-value draft/funds wording and parcel/courier delivery requirements. This is a classic advance-fee fraud document shape.
  • 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.
