MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.002 Phishing: Spearphishing Link T1204.001 User Execution: Malicious Link

The sample is a PDF containing a large number of external links to other PDFs hosted on compromised sites, characteristic of an SEO link farm used for phishing. The document body lures the user with a fake 'Perfect english grammar past perfect exercise 3' pretext, and the ClamAV detection 'Pdf.Phishing.TtraffRobotInstall' further supports the malicious intent to drive traffic to these destinations.

Heuristics 4

  • 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.
