MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The PDF file contains a link to a known malicious redirector, ggtraff.ru, which is flagged by heuristics. The ML classifier also strongly indicates maliciousness. The document body, though heavily obfuscated, contains the same malicious URL, suggesting an attempt to lure the user to a harmful site.

Heuristics 2

  • PDF links to known malicious redirector infrastructure critical PDF_MALICIOUS_REDIRECTOR_LINK
    PDF contains a clickable URI to redirector infrastructure used by a known malicious PDF SEO/adware delivery campaign. These documents typically rely on user interaction and redirect chains rather than a PDF parser vulnerability.
  • 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.
