T1059.001 PowerShell

The PDF utilizes XFA forms, a known vector for exploitation. ClamAV detected it as Js.Exploit.HTML-30, indicating JavaScript-based exploitation. The embedded URL, while seemingly benign, is part of the exploit chain. The ML classifier strongly flags this PDF as malicious. The script logic appears to be obfuscated, but the overall pattern suggests it's designed to download and execute a second-stage payload.

    PDF uses XML Forms Architecture — can contain script logic
  • PDF differential parser failed info PDF_DIFFERENTIAL_PARSE_FAILED
    The cross-check parser (pdfminer.six) failed on this file: PDF differential parser failed: PSEOF. Static heuristics still ran and any of their findings above are valid; only the differential cross-check signal is missing.
  • 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.
