T1059.003 Windows Command Shell
T1204.002 Malicious File
The PDF file contains a critical PDF_LAUNCH heuristic firing, indicating an attempt to execute an external program. Specifically, the PDF_LAUNCH_COMMAND heuristic reveals that cmd.exe is launched with parameters designed to write arbitrary content to files on the local system. This strongly suggests an attempt to execute commands, likely as a precursor to a more complex attack.
Heuristics 5
-
Launch action critical PDF_LAUNCHPDF contains a /Launch action whose target is an executable, URL, or UNC path — can start an external application
-
/Launch action target: cmd.exe critical PDF_LAUNCH_COMMANDPDF /Launch action specifies an executable target with parameters '/C echo hihi >> c:\\coucou.txt && echo toto >> c:\\coucou.txt && echo' — references a known-dangerous executable (cmd, PowerShell, etc.).
-
OpenAction trigger high PDF_OPENACTIONPDF has an /OpenAction that launches, submits, or opens an external target
-
Suspicious extracted artifact info EXTRACTED_FILE_STATIC_TRIAGEOne 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_URLOne 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.URL http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#
