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

The PDF contains multiple embedded and invisible links designed to trick the user into downloading a payload. The primary malicious URL identified is http://judgesclinic.site/Assurance-With-Deloitte-Consulting-Llp/pdf/marathonts.com, which is repeatedly used in the lure. The document body itself is heavily obfuscated, but the heuristic firings clearly indicate a payload delivery mechanism via these links.

Heuristics 2

  • 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.
  • 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.
