T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1059.007 JavaScript

The file is a PDF document that contains a URL disguised as a search result for a book. The presence of external URIs and the ML classifier's high confidence score indicate malicious intent. The ClamAV detection further confirms this, identifying it as a phishing trojan. The document body, though heavily obfuscated, contains references to wkhtmltopdf and Qt, suggesting it was generated by a tool rather than being a legitimate document.

  • ClamAV: Pdf.Phishing.Trojan-d2568dad23a94d95-d2568dad23a94d95-10044375-0 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION

  • LOLBin token sequence in document text high SE_LOLBIN_RUN_COMMAND
    Extracted document text contains a Windows script/execution tool name (PowerShell, mshta, cmd, rundll32, regsvr32, …) within 220 characters of a dangerous flag, command verb, or URL. This is a visible 'run this' instruction in HTML/PDF/RTF lure bodies, or — in macro-laden Office files — the macro's own string-pool entries appearing adjacent in extracted text.
  • 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.
