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

The PDF document contains a large number of external links, a technique often used for SEO poisoning or to redirect users to malicious sites. The document body, though partially corrupted, suggests a 'police investigation scenario' lure. The primary intent appears to be directing users to a network of linked PDF files hosted on various domains, likely as a form of traffic distribution or to host further malicious content.

Heuristics 3

  • 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.
