MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.002 Spearphishing Attachment T1204.002 Malicious Link

The PDF file contains a link to a known malicious redirector, ttraff.cc, disguised as a guide for a phone action. It also features a large number of embedded links to other PDF files, suggesting a link farm or SEO poisoning tactic. The primary malicious URL is https://ttraff.cc/wix?keyword=how+to+screenshot+galaxy+s8, which is likely used to redirect the user to a malicious site. The presence of numerous benign-looking PDF links alongside the malicious one is a common social engineering tactic.

Heuristics 3

  • 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.
  • 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.
