MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The sample was identified as malicious by a machine learning classifier and ClamAV, with heuristics indicating the presence of external URIs and embedded URLs. Although no scripts were explicitly extracted, the PDF structure and embedded URLs suggest an attempt to lure the user to malicious content, likely for phishing or to download a second-stage payload. The primary attack vector is likely spearphishing attachment.

  • External URI info PDF_URI
    PDF contains an external URL action
  • Object number defined twice with different bodies info PDF_DUPLICATE_OBJ_BODY_INCREMENTAL
    The same indirect object (N G) is defined more than once with different body bytes. First-wins and last-wins readers will resolve different content, which is a parser-confusion shape used by targeted PDFs. Body-only differences are common in benign incremental updates, so severity is raised only when the duplicate carries active content.
  • 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.
