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

The PDF contains a large number of embedded links to external PDF files hosted on various domains. This behavior is indicative of a link farm or a distribution mechanism for further malicious content, as flagged by the PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM heuristic. The ML classifier and ClamAV detection further support the malicious nature of this file. No scripts were extracted, and the document body content was heavily corrupted, making it impossible to determine a specific lure.

  • 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.
