T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The PDF contains a large number of embedded links to external PDF files, a technique often used for SEO poisoning or to distribute malicious content. While the ML classifier strongly indicates maliciousness, the specific intent beyond link farming is unclear due to the lack of executable scripts or clear textual lures. The embedded links are likely intended to redirect users to malicious sites or to download further malware.

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.
  • Visual download / call-to-action button lure low SE_DOWNLOAD_BUTTON
    Document contains a call-to-action phrase ('Click here to download', 'Download Now', etc.) — low-signal unless other findings point to a malicious workflow
  • 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.
