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

The PDF file contains a large number of external links, many of which are structured to appear as SEO-optimized content. The heuristic 'PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM' indicates a mass of external PDF links, with 'kalezees.com' being a dominant host. The embedded document body also contains URLs, including 'http://thornburgsearch.com/uploads/1/3/0/2/130272631/130272631.html#dmc+lx7+manual'. This suggests a campaign to drive traffic to potentially malicious or deceptive websites.

Heuristics 3

  • Embedded URL info EMBEDDED_URL
