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

The PDF file contains a large number of external links, a technique often used for SEO poisoning to drive traffic to malicious sites. The heuristic 'PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM' specifically identifies this behavior. The embedded document body text, though heavily obfuscated, contains references to URLs that are also present in the extracted URL list. No scripts were extracted from this sample, limiting further analysis of its direct payload delivery mechanism.

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.
  • External URI info PDF_URI
    PDF contains an external URL action
  • 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.
