MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.002 Spearphishing Attachment T1204.001 User Execution: Malicious Link

The PDF document contains multiple invisible links pointing to the same external URL, strongly suggesting a phishing or malware delivery attempt. The heuristic 'PDF_REPEATED_PAYLOAD_LINK_LURE' confirms this, indicating the links are designed to deliver a payload. The embedded URL 'https://kontaktlines.com/us.kuehne-nagel.com' is the primary indicator for potential payload retrieval.

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.
    URL https://kontaktlines.com/us.kuehne-nagel.com
