Malware Insights
The PDF file contains a heuristic firing for a malicious redirector link, pointing to 'https://ttraff.me/wix?keyword=crossword+answer+for+greek+starters'. This URL is presented within the document body, disguised as a crossword puzzle answer, indicating a social engineering lure. The file also contains a large number of embedded links to external PDFs, many hosted on static.usrfiles.com, suggesting a link farm or redirection strategy. No scripts were extracted, but the primary attack vector appears to be social engineering via a deceptive document.
Heuristics 3
-
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.
-
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.me/wix?keyword=crossword+answer+for+greek+starters
