MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1204.002 Malicious Link

The document contains multiple embedded URLs and a prominent external URI pointing to sites offering game-related hacks and free items, indicative of a scam or malware distribution lure. The 'SE_CLICKFIX' heuristic suggests the document may attempt to trick the user into executing commands, likely to download and run a second-stage payload. The ML classifier also strongly flagged this PDF as malicious.

Machine Learning

  • Nyx PDF Classifier malicious score 0.9864

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.
