The document body, though heavily obfuscated, contains keywords related to game downloads, suggesting a social engineering lure. The ML classifier also strongly indicated maliciousness.

Heuristics 2

  • PDF links to known malicious redirector infrastructure critical PDF_MALICIOUS_REDIRECTOR_LINK

  • Embedded URL info EMBEDDED_URL
