MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution

The sample is a PDF document that displays a fake CAPTCHA or human verification prompt to trick users into interacting with it. It contains an embedded URI pointing to a URL that likely hosts a malicious payload. The document body and extracted URLs suggest a lure related to game hacks or rewards, a common social engineering tactic. No scripts were extracted, but the presence of a fake CAPTCHA and external URI strongly indicates an attempt to execute further malicious code.

Heuristics 4

  • Fake CAPTCHA / human verification prompt high SE_FAKE_CAPTCHA
    Document displays a fake CAPTCHA or human-verification prompt — used to trick users into running commands or pressing keyboard shortcuts
  • Visual download / call-to-action button lure low SE_DOWNLOAD_BUTTON
    Document contains a call-to-action phrase ('Click here to download', 'Download Now', etc.) — low-signal unless other findings point to a malicious workflow
  • External URI info PDF_URI
    PDF contains an external URL action
  • 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.
