T1566.002 Phishing: Spearphishing Attachment
The PDF file contains embedded script content, as indicated by the PDF_EMBEDDED_SCRIPT_PAYLOAD heuristic. ClamAV also detected this file as Pdf.Exploit.Dropped-78, suggesting it's a known exploit dropper. An embedded file object was also identified, likely containing the malicious payload. The exact nature of the exploit and payload is not fully discernible from the provided evidence, but the presence of embedded scripts and exploit detection points to a malicious delivery mechanism.

-
XFA form low PDF_XFAPDF uses XML Forms Architecture — can contain script logic
-
