MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.002 Spearphishing Attachment T1204.002 User Execution: Malicious File T1059.001 PowerShell

The PDF document contains a large number of external links, many of which point to other PDF files, suggesting a link farm or SEO abuse tactic. The document body and embedded URLs indicate a lure related to a 'free full version' of a game, likely to trick users into downloading further malicious content. The presence of a 'Security software disable instruction' heuristic firing is a strong indicator of malicious intent, as it directly advises the user to compromise their own security. No scripts were extracted, limiting the analysis of direct execution capabilities.

Heuristics 4

  • 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.
  • Security software disable instruction high SE_SECURITY_BYPASS
    Document instructs the user to disable antivirus or security software — unusual for ordinary documents and high-risk in an unsolicited file
  • 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.
