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

The PDF file contains multiple heuristics indicating a malicious workflow, specifically the 'PDF_REPEATED_PAYLOAD_LINK_LURE' and 'PDF_URI' firings. These point to the use of invisible and repeated links to trick the user into downloading a payload, disguised as a Toys R Us coupon code. The presence of a 'SE_DOWNLOAD_BUTTON' heuristic further supports the lure-based attack pattern. The primary URLs associated with these lures are http://uncpbisdegree.com/download3.php?q=toys-r-us-coupon-code.pdf and https://givingassistant.org/coupon-codes/toysrus.com.

Heuristics 4

  • Invisible/repeated PDF links deliver payload file critical PDF_REPEATED_PAYLOAD_LINK_LURE
    PDF uses invisible link annotations and points to a direct payload download. Repeated invisible links or lure-like payload names such as document/unlock/verify archives match malware-delivery PDF carriers where the page is only a prompt and the real payload is fetched from the linked URL.
  • 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
  • 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.
