MITRE ATT&CK
T1204 Malicious Link T1059 Command and Scripting Interpreter

The PDF file contains a lure to copy/paste commands into a shell, as indicated by the 'SE_CLIPBOARD_COMMAND_LURE' heuristic. It also embeds a link to a known malicious redirector, 'https://ttraff.ru/wb?keyword=install%20grub%20bootloader%20manually', which is likely used to download a secondary payload. The document also functions as a link farm, pointing to numerous external PDFs, with 'https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0433/9177/8965/files/parebemovek.pdf' being a prominent example. The presence of these elements suggests a social engineering attack aimed at tricking the user into executing malicious commands.

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.
  • Clipboard command execution lure high SE_CLIPBOARD_COMMAND_LURE
    Document tells the user to copy or paste clipboard content into Run, PowerShell, cmd, or another shell-like execution context
  • 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.
