MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.002 Spearphishing Attachment T1059.001 PowerShell

The PDF file was flagged by multiple heuristics as malicious, specifically due to an embedded link pointing to known malicious redirector infrastructure. The ML classifier also strongly indicated maliciousness. The primary IOC is the malicious URL, which is likely used to deliver a secondary payload or redirect to a phishing page. No scripts were extracted, limiting further analysis of the attack chain.

Heuristics 2

  • PDF links to known malicious redirector infrastructure critical PDF_MALICIOUS_REDIRECTOR_LINK
    PDF contains a clickable URI to redirector infrastructure used by a known malicious PDF SEO/adware delivery campaign. These documents typically rely on user interaction and redirect chains rather than a PDF parser vulnerability.
  • 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.
