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

The PDF document contains a significant number of external links, identified by the PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM heuristic. The document body also contains a URL, 'http://web4.pleasingfood.com/uploads/1/3/0/7/130740465/130740465.html#como+traduzir+um+arquivo+pdf+inteiro', which appears to be a lure. The primary function seems to be directing users to a large collection of other PDF files hosted on various domains, potentially for SEO spam or to distribute further malicious content.

Heuristics 3

  • Embedded URL info EMBEDDED_URL
