MITRE ATT&CK
T1059 Command and Scripting Interpreter T1204 User Execution

The PDF contains a 'SE_CLIPBOARD_COMMAND_LURE' heuristic, indicating it instructs the user to copy and paste content into a shell. This is a common technique for social engineering attacks to trick users into executing malicious commands. The document also contains numerous external links, many of which point to PDFs hosted on similar domains, suggesting a link farm or redirection mechanism. No scripts were extracted from this sample.

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.
  • Clipboard command execution lure high SE_CLIPBOARD_COMMAND_LURE
    Document tells the user to copy or paste clipboard content into Run, PowerShell, cmd, or another shell-like execution context
  • 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.
