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

The PDF document contains a large number of external links, many of which are hosted on domains that appear to be part of a link farm. The document body text, though partially corrupted, includes the phrase 'Cuales son las caracteristicas de un angulo obtuso' and references 'wkhtmltopdf', suggesting a lure to a page discussing geometry. The primary heuristic indicates this is a 'PDF SEO LINK FARM' designed to drive traffic to numerous external PDF files, likely for SEO manipulation or to host malicious content. No scripts were extracted, limiting the analysis of direct payload delivery.

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.
