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

The PDF file contains a large number of external links, many of which point to other PDF files on different domains. This behavior is indicative of a link farm or SEO spam campaign, likely intended to drive traffic or distribute malicious content. The document body contains garbled text and metadata from the wkhtmltopdf tool, suggesting it was programmatically generated rather than user-authored content. No scripts were extracted from this sample.

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.
