T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1566.002 Spearphishing Link

The PDF file was flagged by a machine learning classifier as malicious. Static analysis revealed a large number of embedded external links, characteristic of a link farm or a distribution mechanism for further malicious content. The document body contains garbled text, suggesting it is not intended for direct user consumption but rather as a container for these links.

Heuristics 2

  • 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
    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.
