MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The sample is a PDF document flagged by ClamAV as 'Pdf.Phishing.TtraffRobotInstall-7605656-0' and exhibits a critical heuristic for a large number of external PDF links. The embedded URLs suggest a link farm designed to redirect users to various PDF files hosted on different domains. No scripts were extracted, but the sheer volume of outbound links indicates a malicious intent, likely related to SEO manipulation or redirecting users to potentially malicious content. The ML classifier also strongly indicated maliciousness.

  • 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.
