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

The PDF file contains a significant number of external links, identified as a PDF link farm. The primary purpose appears to be directing users to various external PDF documents hosted on different domains, likely for SEO manipulation or to distribute further malicious content. The embedded URLs, such as http://devs.stefanaarnio.com/uploads/1/3/1/6/131606874/131606874.html#%25D9%2585%25D8%25A7%25D8%25B0%25D8%25A7+%25D8%25AA%25D9%2581%25D8%25B9%25D9%2584+%25D8%25B9%25D9%2584%25D9%2583%25D8%25A9+%25D8%25B2%25D8%25A7%25D9%2586%25D8%25AA%25D8%25A7%25D9%2586+%25D9%2581%25D9%258A+%25D8%25A7%25D9%2584%25D8%25AE%25D8%25A8%25D8%25B2 and http://snapmediastudio.com/uploads/1/3/0/6/130621021/buxebafuxu_vonazi.pdf, are key indicators of this behavior.

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
