T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1059.007 JavaScript

The PDF file contains a heuristic firing for PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM, indicating it is part of a link farm designed to manipulate search engine results. The embedded URL `https://jumiwimov.ru/award?keyword=rational+root+theorem+examples+pdf` further supports this, masquerading as a legitimate search result to drive traffic to a malicious domain. ClamAV detection as `Pdf.Phishing.Trojan-d2528dad23a95d95-d2528dad23a95d95-10044376-0` and the ML classifier output confirm its malicious nature, likely for phishing or malware distribution.

Heuristics 5

  • 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.
  • ClamAV: Pdf.Phishing.Trojan-d2528dad23a95d95-d2528dad23a95d95-10044376-0 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Pdf.Phishing.Trojan-d2528dad23a95d95-d2528dad23a95d95-10044376-0
  • External URI info PDF_URI
    PDF contains an external URL action
  • Object number defined twice with different bodies info PDF_DUPLICATE_OBJ_BODY_INCREMENTAL
    The same indirect object (N G) is defined more than once with different body bytes. First-wins and last-wins readers will resolve different content, which is a parser-confusion shape used by targeted PDFs. Body-only differences are common in benign incremental updates, so severity is raised only when the duplicate carries active content.
  • 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.
