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

The PDF document contains a large number of external links, many of which are dynamically generated and point to seemingly unrelated PDF files. The heuristic 'PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM' indicates a technique to artificially inflate search engine rankings, often used to host malicious content or phishing pages. The embedded URLs, such as 'http://sui86.salon225.com/uploads/1/3/0/6/130604765/130604765.html#development+through+the+lifespan+5th+edition+pdf+free', are presented as free PDF downloads, likely serving as a lure to redirect users to potentially malicious 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.
  • 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.
