MITRE ATT&CK

While no scripts were explicitly extracted, the PDF structure and the malicious URL suggest it is designed to lure users to a harmful site, potentially for phishing or to download further malware.

Heuristics 2

  • PDF links to known malicious redirector infrastructure critical PDF_MALICIOUS_REDIRECTOR_LINK

  • Embedded URL info EMBEDDED_URL
