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

The PDF document contains a large number of external links, many of which point to other PDF files hosted on various domains. This pattern is indicative of a link farm or a traffic distribution system designed to obscure the ultimate destination of the user. The presence of the 'PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM' heuristic firing strongly supports this assessment. The document body contains garbled text and what appears to be metadata, but the primary malicious activity is the distribution of these external links.

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.
