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

The PDF document contains a large number of external links, many of which are dynamically generated and point to PDF files. The primary link in the document body, 'http://mxr4good.com/uploads/1/3/0/6/130603827/130603827.html#4+pics+one+word+level+371+answer', suggests a lure for a game or puzzle, which is a common tactic for phishing or malware distribution. The heuristic 'PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM' indicates a deliberate attempt to create a link farm, further supporting the malicious intent. 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.
