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

The PDF document contains a large number of embedded URLs pointing to external PDF files across various domains. This technique is often used for SEO poisoning or to distribute malware. The document body, though partially corrupted, contains references to 'Denver ii test form' and the authoring application 'wkhtmltopdf', suggesting a lure document. The primary attack pattern involves redirecting users to a link farm of potentially malicious PDFs.

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.
