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

The PDF file contains numerous external links, identified by the PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM heuristic, pointing to various domains. One of these links, http://mychinesewatch.com/uploads/1/3/1/4/131406569/131406569.html#branding+guidelines+sample, is presented as a branding guidelines sample. The presence of a large number of external links suggests a link farm or a distribution mechanism for further malicious content.

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.
