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

The PDF file contains a significant number of external links, identified by the PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM heuristic. These links point to various domains, suggesting a link farm or a distribution point for malicious content. The document body contains obfuscated text and references to the URLs, reinforcing the idea that the primary purpose is to redirect users to these external resources. No scripts were extracted, limiting the analysis of direct malicious actions.

Heuristics 3

  • 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.
  • 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.
