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

The PDF document contains a large number of external links, identified by the PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM heuristic. The embedded document body text, though garbled, contains a URL that points to a Spanish language document about verb tenses, which is likely a lure. The primary function appears to be directing users to a vast collection of external PDF files hosted across numerous domains, potentially for SEO spam or to distribute further malicious content.

Heuristics 3

  • Small PDF contains mass external PDF link farm critical PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM

  • External URI info PDF_URI
    PDF contains an external URL action
  • Embedded URL info EMBEDDED_URL
