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

The PDF document contains a large number of embedded URLs pointing to external PDF files hosted on various domains. This pattern is indicative of a link farm or SEO manipulation tactic, potentially used to distribute malware or phish for information. The heuristic 'PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM' strongly supports this assessment, identifying a mass of external links. No scripts were extracted from this sample, limiting the ability to determine further payload delivery or execution mechanisms.

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.
