MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

This PDF file exhibits malicious behavior by acting as a link farm, directing users to potentially harmful websites. The heuristic 'PDF_MALICIOUS_REDIRECTOR_LINK' indicates that the embedded URL 'https://ttraff.ru/wix?keyword=great+depression+worksheets+middle+s' leads to known malicious redirector infrastructure. The 'PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM' heuristic further confirms the intent to distribute numerous external links, likely for SEO manipulation or to spread malware. No scripts were extracted from this sample.

Heuristics 4

  • 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
