MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The document displays a fake CAPTCHA lure to entice users to click on an embedded URL, which is a common tactic for delivering malware. The ML classifier strongly flagged this PDF as malicious, and the presence of multiple external URIs further supports this assessment. No scripts were extracted, but the overall pattern suggests a phishing or social engineering attack.

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.
