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

The PDF file contains numerous embedded links, many of which point to disposable hosting and are part of a link farm designed to obscure the ultimate destination. The heuristic 'PDF_SEO_DISPOSABLE_LINK_FARM' indicates a high likelihood of malicious intent, and the ML classifier and ClamAV detection further support this. The primary IOC is the URL 'https://synerhu.ru/pbw?utm_term=how+to+beat+simian+flu+on+normal', which is likely used for phishing or malware distribution.

  • Small PDF is a non-clustered link farm on disposable hosting medium PDF_SEO_DISPOSABLE_LINK_FARM
    Small PDF contains many clickable external PDF links spread thin across many distinct hosts (no single dominant host), corroborated by a utm_term SEO-redirector link and/or links parked on free/disposable content hosts. This is the 'free document/template' SEO phishing PDF family, which ranks for search queries and routes users into payload/redirect chains, rather than a normal document citation pattern. The PDF itself carries no exploit — the risk is the linked destinations.
