MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.001 PowerShell T1566.002 Spearphishing Attachment

The PDF contains embedded JavaScript and an external URI pointing to a suspicious domain, indicating a phishing or malware distribution attempt. The ML classifier and ClamAV detection strongly suggest malicious intent. The embedded URI likely serves as a lure to download a second-stage payload.

  • Embedded JS stream low PDF_JS
    PDF references a /JS stream. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
  • 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.
