T1204.002 Malicious File
The PDF contains an embedded JavaScript payload, indicated by the 'PDF_EMBEDDED_SCRIPT_PAYLOAD' heuristic. The ML classifier strongly flags this PDF as malicious. The embedded JavaScript, named 'stream_001_off00000326.js', is likely responsible for executing the malicious actions. The exact intent of the script is unclear due to its size and potential obfuscation, but it is the primary vector for the attack.
Machine Learning
- Nyx PDF Classifier malicious score 1.0000
Heuristics 5
-
Embedded script payload in PDF stream medium PDF_EMBEDDED_SCRIPT_PAYLOADPDF stream bytes contain an HTML/XFA <script> tag without accompanying Windows shell-execution primitives — common in accessible XFA forms but worth surfacing for analyst review.
-
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: PDFSyntaxError. 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.
