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

The PDF was flagged by a critical heuristic for containing a mass external PDF link farm, with 32 links identified. The majority of these links point to PDFs hosted on www.gorillawalker.com. While no scripts were extracted, the sheer volume of links suggests a malicious intent, possibly for SEO manipulation or to distribute further malicious content. The ML classifier also indicated a high probability of maliciousness.

Heuristics 2

  • 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.
  • 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.
