This PDF document is identified as malicious by an ML classifier and exhibits social engineering tactics. It attempts to trick users into downloading a file by posing as a free game hack, and explicitly instructs the user to execute commands via Win+R or a terminal, which is a common ClickFix attack vector. The document contains numerous embedded URLs pointing to various game-related download lures, suggesting a downloader or exploit distribution mechanism.

Machine Learning

  • Nyx PDF Classifier malicious score 0.8290

Heuristics 4

  • 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
  • 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.
