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

The PDF file contains a large number of embedded external links, identified by the PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM heuristic. These links point to various PDF files hosted on different domains, suggesting a link farm or SEO poisoning tactic. The document body contains the phrase 'Zones of regulation goals' and mentions the authoring application, but does not provide further context for the malicious intent beyond the link farm. No scripts were extracted from this sample.

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.
