MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.001 PowerShell

The PDF contains multiple invisible links, a common technique for luring users to download malicious payloads. One such link points to 'http://techsales.tk/luckmas/zadisparc.exe', which is highly suspicious. The heuristic 'PDF_REPEATED_PAYLOAD_LINK_LURE' confirms this behavior. No scripts were extracted, but the presence of the executable URL is sufficient evidence for the attack pattern.

Heuristics 2

  • Invisible/repeated PDF links deliver payload file critical PDF_REPEATED_PAYLOAD_LINK_LURE
    PDF uses invisible link annotations and points to a direct payload download. Repeated invisible links or lure-like payload names such as document/unlock/verify archives match malware-delivery PDF carriers where the page is only a prompt and the real payload is fetched from the linked URL.
  • 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.
