T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1204.002 Malicious File

The PDF document contains social engineering lures, including a "Click here to download" phrase and instructions consistent with ClickFix attacks that trick users into running commands. It also presents a remote-support tool lure. The primary malicious URL, https://netcdn.xyz/app/479516143/how-to-get-a-cape-in-minecraft-for-free-game-hack, is embedded in the document body and flagged as an external URI, suggesting it leads to a malicious site.

  • Nyx PDF Classifier malicious score 0.9492

Heuristics 5

  • ClickFix social engineering attack high SE_CLICKFIX
    Document instructs the user to press Win+R or paste a command into a terminal — consistent with ClickFix attacks that bypass macro restrictions by tricking users into running malicious commands directly
  • Remote-support tool lure high SE_REMOTE_SUPPORT_LURE
    Document instructs the user to install, open, or connect with a remote-support tool such as AnyDesk, TeamViewer, Quick Assist, or ScreenConnect — high-risk in an unsolicited document
  • 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.
