MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1059.007 JavaScript

The file is identified as malicious by ML classifiers and ClamAV, with a specific detection name 'Pdf.Phishing.Trojan-d2528dad23a95d95-d2528dad23a95d95-10044376-0'. An embedded URL, 'https://traffset.ru/123?utm_term=avast+cleanup+premium+activation+code', suggests a phishing or malware distribution attempt. The document body, though heavily obfuscated, contains text related to 'Avast cleanup premium activation code', reinforcing the lure.

  • 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.
