MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1204.002 User Execution: Malicious File

The PDF file contains a large number of external links, many of which point to other PDF files hosted on similar domains. This pattern is indicative of a link farm designed to manipulate search engine results for potentially unwanted software, such as the 'Aptoide geometry dash 2.1 apk gratis' mentioned in the document body. The primary technique observed is the use of a link farm to distribute links to various PDF files, likely for SEO manipulation.

Heuristics 3

  • 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.
  • 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.
