MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1204.002 Malicious Link

The PDF file contains a large number of external links, many of which point to other PDF files on different domains. This behavior is indicative of a link farm, often used to artificially inflate search engine rankings or to distribute malicious content. The primary URL found in the document body, http://scentsationsbvi.com/uploads/1/3/0/6/130621552/130621552.html#fall+risk+assessment+form+pdf, is part of this link farm. The heuristic 'PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM' strongly supports this assessment.

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.
