T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1204.002 Malicious Link

This PDF document employs social engineering by presenting itself as a 'hack' for a popular game, aiming to trick users into clicking malicious links. The document contains multiple embedded URLs that lead to sites promising game hacks or generators, and one heuristic specifically flags it as a 'Browser extension / update installation lure'. This suggests the primary goal is to redirect the user to a site that will likely host a malicious download or exploit. No scripts were extracted from this sample.

Machine Learning

  • Nyx PDF Classifier malicious score 0.9507

Heuristics 5

  • PDF links to a 'free generator / game hack' redirector high PDF_GAME_HACK_REDIRECT_LURE
    PDF's clickable action targets a redirector of the form /app/<id>/<slug>-game-hack — the landing-page shape of a large SEO 'free spins / generator / game hack' lure family that funnels victims through rotating disposable hosts to a malware/scam payload. The multi-link variants also trip ML/link-farm rules; this catches the single-link variants that otherwise score clean.
  • Browser extension / update installation lure high SE_BROWSER_INSTALL_LURE
    Document tells the user to install a browser extension, plugin, viewer, or browser update to view content — a common social-engineering path for credential theft and malware installation
  • Visual download / call-to-action button lure low SE_DOWNLOAD_BUTTON
    Document contains a call-to-action phrase ('Click here to download', 'Download Now', etc.) — low-signal unless other findings point to a malicious workflow
  • 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.
