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

The sample is a small PDF containing a high density of external links to other PDFs and HTML pages, triggering the PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM heuristic. The document body contains gibberish text and a list of URLs, which is characteristic of SEO poisoning and phishing campaigns. ClamAV detection as Pdf.Phishing.TtraffRobotInstall further supports the classification as a phishing delivery mechanism.

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.
