MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.007 JavaScript T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1071.001 Web Protocols

The PDF document contains JavaScript that automatically executes upon opening, displaying a fake Adobe Acrobat update prompt. This script then attempts to submit form data to the malicious URL 'https://token.onelogin.com-token-auth.com/...'. This behavior is indicative of a phishing or credential harvesting attempt, disguised as a software update notification.

Machine Learning

  • Nyx PDF Classifier malicious score 0.9477

Heuristics 9

  • PDF auto-runs JavaScript form submission on open critical PDF_OPENACTION_JS_SUBMITFORM
    PDF uses /OpenAction to run JavaScript that calls submitForm() with an external HTTP(S) URL. Opening the document triggers the outbound submission path without requiring a normal link click.
  • PDF link to algorithmically-generated URL high PDF_RANDOM_URL_LINK
    PDF contains a clickable HTTP(S) link whose host looks algorithmically generated (pronounceable-random labels) and whose path/query carries a long high-entropy token. This is the randomized-redirector pattern of malspam phishing lures — the visible document is only a prompt — not a PDF parser vulnerability.
  • PDF JavaScript shows fake Acrobat updater prompt high PDF_FAKE_ACROBAT_UPDATE_LURE
    PDF JavaScript displays Acrobat/update-themed language such as a document rendering engine update or remote connection to Adobe servers. When paired with JavaScript or external submission, this is a social-engineering lure rather than benign document text.
  • JavaScript action low 1 related finding PDF_JAVASCRIPT
    PDF contains a /JavaScript action. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
  • 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.
  • 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
  • Suspicious extracted artifact info EXTRACTED_FILE_STATIC_TRIAGE
    One or more files extracted from inside this sample matched static suspicious-content checks such as script obfuscation, encoded payload blobs, packed data, or execution/download terms.
  • 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.
