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

The PDF file contains a large number of embedded links to other PDF files, a technique often used for SEO poisoning or to distribute malicious content. The ClamAV detection 'Pdf.Phishing.TtraffRobotInstall-7605656-0' and the 'PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM' heuristic strongly indicate a phishing or malicious distribution campaign. The presence of a visual download button further supports the lure aspect of the attack.

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.
