MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.002 Spearphishing Attachment
T1204.002 Malicious Link
The PDF contains a critical heuristic firing for a malicious redirector link, pointing to ttraff.com. It also contains a large number of embedded links to external PDFs, many hosted on Shopify, suggesting a link farm or SEO poisoning attempt. The presence of a 'download button' lure and a 'password-protected archive' lure further supports a social engineering attack. The primary malicious URL is https://ttraff.com/pify?keyword=aashto+7th+edition+pdf, which likely serves as the initial entry point for a further payload.
Heuristics 5
-
PDF links to known malicious redirector infrastructure critical PDF_MALICIOUS_REDIRECTOR_LINKPDF 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_FARMSmall 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.
-
Password-protected archive handoff high SE_PASSWORD_ARCHIVE_LUREDocument gives password instructions for an archive or attachment — often used to keep payloads encrypted until after gateway scanning
-
Visual download / call-to-action button lure low SE_DOWNLOAD_BUTTONDocument contains a call-to-action phrase ('Click here to download', 'Download Now', etc.) — low-signal unless other findings point to a malicious workflow
-
Embedded URL info EMBEDDED_URLOne 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.URL https://ttraff.com/pify?keyword=aashto+7th+edition+pdf
