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

The PDF file exhibits characteristics of a phishing lure, as indicated by the 'PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM' heuristic which detected a mass of external PDF links. The ClamAV detection 'Pdf.Phishing.TtraffRobotInstall-7605656-0' further supports this assessment. The embedded URLs, such as http://mortargroutepoxy.com/uploads/1/3/0/6/130620736/zekukoluta_kisukofedajuv.pdf, are likely part of a campaign to redirect users to malicious content.

Heuristics 3

    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.
