The PDF contains an embedded JavaScript stream and a large number of external links, many of which point to other PDF files on various domains. The document body, though heavily obfuscated, contains references to a book title and the wkhtmltopdf tool, suggesting a lure to external content. The embedded JavaScript and the link farm indicate an attempt to redirect the user to potentially malicious websites, likely for further exploitation or SEO spam.

Machine Learning

  • Nyx PDF Classifier malicious score 0.9998

Heuristics 4

  • 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.
  • Embedded JS stream low PDF_JS
    PDF references a /JS stream. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
  • External URI info PDF_URI
    PDF contains an external URL action
  • 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.
