MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1059.007 JavaScript

The PDF file contains a heuristic firing for a 'PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM', indicating a large number of external links, with one prominent example being https://s3.amazonaws.com/nawuvud/84186006280.pdf. The 'PDF_URI' heuristic also identified https://seumenha.ru/123?utm_term=c4+vs+c3. The ML classifier strongly flagged this PDF as malicious. While no scripts were explicitly extracted, the structure suggests an attempt to redirect users to potentially harmful content, aligning with spearphishing attachment tactics.

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.
  • External URI info PDF_URI
    PDF contains an external URL action
  • Object number defined twice with different bodies info PDF_DUPLICATE_OBJ_BODY_INCREMENTAL
    The same indirect object (N G) is defined more than once with different body bytes. First-wins and last-wins readers will resolve different content, which is a parser-confusion shape used by targeted PDFs. Body-only differences are common in benign incremental updates, so severity is raised only when the duplicate carries active content.
  • 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.
