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

The PDF file contains a large number of embedded links to external PDF documents hosted on 'www.gorillawalker.com'. This behavior is indicative of a link farm or SEO manipulation tactic, often used to mask malicious intent or distribute further payloads. The heuristic 'SE_PASSWORD_ARCHIVE_LURE' suggests that the document might also be instructing the user to open a password-protected archive, which is a common method to bypass security scans.

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.
  • Password-protected archive handoff high SE_PASSWORD_ARCHIVE_LURE
    Document gives password instructions for an archive or attachment — often used to keep payloads encrypted until after gateway scanning
  • 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.
