MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1059.007 JavaScript

This PDF was flagged by multiple heuristics, including a machine learning model and ClamAV, indicating malicious intent. It contains numerous external links, with 'https://botokaw.ru/strik?utm_term=tork+light+timer+parts' and 'http://domobifotuza.sportsontheweb.net/present_simple_and_continuous_text_exercises.pdf' being prominent examples. The presence of embedded URLs and the 'PDF_SEO_DISPOSABLE_LINK_FARM' heuristic suggest the document's primary purpose is to redirect users to potentially harmful external sites.

  • Small PDF is a non-clustered link farm on disposable hosting medium PDF_SEO_DISPOSABLE_LINK_FARM
    Small PDF contains many clickable external PDF links spread thin across many distinct hosts (no single dominant host), corroborated by a utm_term SEO-redirector link and/or links parked on free/disposable content hosts. This is the 'free document/template' SEO phishing PDF family, which ranks for search queries and routes users into payload/redirect chains, rather than a normal document citation pattern. The PDF itself carries no exploit — the risk is the linked destinations.
  • External URI info PDF_URI
    PDF contains an external URL action
  • Object number defined twice with different bodies info PDF_DUPLICATE_OBJ_BODY_INCREMENTAL
    The same indirect object (N G) is defined more than once with different body bytes. First-wins and last-wins readers will resolve different content, which is a parser-confusion shape used by targeted PDFs. Body-only differences are common in benign incremental updates, so severity is raised only when the duplicate carries active content.
  • 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.
