The PDF file contains an embedded script payload and triggers heuristics related to XFA forms and malicious PDF exploits. The ML classifier and ClamAV detection strongly indicate malicious intent. The embedded script is likely responsible for delivering the exploit payload, although its exact function cannot be determined due to obfuscation.

  • Embedded script payload in PDF stream medium PDF_EMBEDDED_SCRIPT_PAYLOAD
    PDF stream bytes contain an HTML/XFA <script> tag without accompanying Windows shell-execution primitives — common in accessible XFA forms but worth surfacing for analyst review.
  • XFA form low PDF_XFA
    PDF uses XML Forms Architecture — can contain script logic
  • 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.
