MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.002 Spearphishing Attachment T1059.001 PowerShell

The PDF contains a large number of embedded external links, identified by the PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM heuristic, pointing to various PDF files hosted on unrelated domains. The ClamAV detection as Pdf.Phishing.TtraffRobotInstall-7605656-0 and the ML classifier output strongly indicate malicious intent, likely for phishing or malware distribution. The document body, though containing technical text, also embeds these malicious URLs, reinforcing the attack pattern.

  • 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 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.
