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

The PDF document contains a large number of external links, many of which are SEO-optimized and point to pages offering hacks or cheats for popular games. The presence of a 'download button' heuristic and the ML classifier's high confidence score indicate a malicious intent to trick users into downloading potentially harmful content. The primary URL, https://netcdn.xyz/app/406889139/coin-master-hack-apk-3.3-download-game-hack, is likely the payload delivery point.

  • Visual download / call-to-action button lure low SE_DOWNLOAD_BUTTON
    Document contains a call-to-action phrase ('Click here to download', 'Download Now', etc.) — low-signal unless other findings point to a malicious workflow
  • 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.
