T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment
T1027 Obfuscated Files or Information
The PDF file exhibits characteristics of malicious intent through obfuscation and the presence of an embedded file, as indicated by the 'PDF_EMBEDDED' and 'CLAMAV_DETECTION' heuristics. The 'Heuristics.PDF.ObfuscatedNameObject' detection by ClamAV further supports this. The embedded file, 'embedded_file_obj0001.bin', is likely a secondary payload. The differential parser failure suggests deliberate attempts to hinder analysis.
Heuristics 5
-
ClamAV: Heuristics.PDF.ObfuscatedNameObject critical CLAMAV_DETECTIONClamAV detected this file as malware: Heuristics.PDF.ObfuscatedNameObject
-
Embedded file low PDF_EMBEDDEDPDF embeds a file attachment — could carry an executable or another weaponised document as a nested payload
-
XFA form low PDF_XFAPDF uses XML Forms Architecture — can contain script logic
-
PDF differential parser failed info PDF_DIFFERENTIAL_PARSE_FAILEDThe cross-check parser (pdfminer.six) failed on this file: PDF differential parser failed: PSSyntaxError. Static heuristics still ran and any of their findings above are valid; only the differential cross-check signal is missing.
-
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.
