MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.001 PowerShell

The PDF contains a large number of embedded URLs, forming a link farm. The ML classifier strongly indicated maliciousness. The primary attack pattern observed is the SEO link farm technique, designed to drive traffic to external resources. No scripts were extracted, and the document body was heavily obfuscated, preventing further analysis of specific payloads.

Heuristics 2

  • 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.
  • 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.
