T1204 Malicious File
T1204.002 Malicious File: User Execution - Malicious File
The critical ClamAV detection 'Pdf.Exploit.Agent-36830' indicates this PDF is malicious and likely exploits a known vulnerability. The presence of an embedded script payload and an embedded file further supports this assessment. The embedded artifact is also flagged by ClamAV, reinforcing the malicious nature of the file.
Heuristics 6
-
ClamAV: Pdf.Exploit.Agent-36830 critical CLAMAV_DETECTIONClamAV detected this file as malware: Pdf.Exploit.Agent-36830
-
ClamAV detection on extracted artifact critical EXTRACTED_FILE_CLAMAVClamAV flagged at least one file extracted from inside this sample. Even when the wrapping document carries no AV detection of its own, a hit on the carved artifact is a strong indicator the sample is a delivery vehicle.
-
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
-
Embedded URL info EMBEDDED_URLOne 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.URL http://ns.adobe.com/xdp/
