MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1059.007 JavaScript

This PDF document is classified as malicious by ML and ClamAV, indicating a phishing or trojan threat. It contains a large number of external links, many pointing to Weebly-hosted PDFs, suggesting a link farm designed to obscure the ultimate malicious destination. The document body, though heavily obfuscated, contains references to 'duck hunt dog meme' and 'wkhtmltopdf', likely as lures to attract user clicks. The presence of numerous external URIs and the PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM heuristic strongly suggest the primary goal is to redirect users to potentially harmful websites.

  • 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
  • Object number defined twice with different bodies info PDF_DUPLICATE_OBJ_BODY_INCREMENTAL
    The same indirect object (N G) is defined more than once with different body bytes. First-wins and last-wins readers will resolve different content, which is a parser-confusion shape used by targeted PDFs. Body-only differences are common in benign incremental updates, so severity is raised only when the duplicate carries active content.
  • 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.
