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

This PDF document exhibits characteristics of a phishing lure, as indicated by the high number of embedded links to external PDF files, many of which appear to be algorithmically generated. The ClamAV detection and ML classifier further support its malicious nature. While no scripts were extracted, the primary attack vector appears to be the redirection of users to potentially malicious content hosted on numerous domains.

Heuristics 4

  • ClamAV: Pdf.Phishing.TtraffRobotInstall-7605656-0 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Pdf.Phishing.TtraffRobotInstall-7605656-0
  • Small PDF contains mass external PDF link farm critical PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM
    Small PDF contains many clickable external PDF links, mostly clustered on one host. This matches generated SEO/link-farm PDF carriers used to route users into malicious or unwanted-software delivery chains, rather than a normal document citation pattern.
  • PDF link to algorithmically-generated URL high PDF_RANDOM_URL_LINK
    PDF contains a clickable HTTP(S) link whose host looks algorithmically generated (pronounceable-random labels) and whose path/query carries a long high-entropy token. This is the randomized-redirector pattern of malspam phishing lures — the visible document is only a prompt — not a PDF parser vulnerability.
  • 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.
