MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1204.002 Malicious Link

The PDF document contains a large number of external links, many of which point to other PDF files hosted on various domains. This suggests a link farm or SEO poisoning tactic to drive traffic to potentially malicious content. The document body contains the phrase 'Nautical almanac 1988 pdf free', which may be a lure to entice users to click on the embedded links. No scripts were extracted from this sample.

  • 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.
