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

The PDF document contains a large number of external links, identified as a link farm. The primary URL http://74-123-75-232.mgwnet.com/uploads/1/3/0/8/130814208/130814208.html#3m+3340+tape+data+sheet and others point to various PDF files hosted on unrelated domains. This technique is often used to manipulate search engine results or to distribute malicious payloads indirectly. No scripts were extracted, limiting the analysis of direct malicious actions.

  • External URI info PDF_URI
    PDF contains an external URL action
  • Embedded URL info EMBEDDED_URL
