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

The PDF document was generated by wkhtmltopdf and contains a large number of embedded external links, triggering the PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM heuristic. One of these links, http://uccarticles2and9.net/uploads/1/3/0/5/130544725/130544725.html#honeywell+lyric+t5+wiring+diagram+heat+pump, is also flagged as an embedded URL. This suggests a link farm or SEO poisoning attack, where the document's primary purpose is to redirect users to potentially malicious external sites.

Heuristics 3

  • Small PDF contains mass external PDF link farm critical PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM
    Small PDF contains many clickable external PDF links, mostly clustered on one host. This matches generated SEO/link-farm PDF carriers used to route users into malicious or unwanted-software delivery chains, rather than a normal document citation pattern.

  • Embedded URL info EMBEDDED_URL
