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

The PDF file contains numerous embedded links, forming a link farm. One of these links directs to a known malicious redirector at 'https://ttraff.ru/pify?keyword=%25D0%25B7%25D1%2580%25D0%25B5%25D0%25BB%25D1%258B%25D0%25B5+%25D0%25B2+%25D0%25BF%25D0%25BE%25D1%2580%25D0%25BD%25D0%25BE+%25D0%25B2%25D0%25BA+merengo', indicating a malicious intent to redirect users to harmful content. The presence of a large number of external PDF links suggests a tactic to distribute malware or phishing content through a network of hosted files.

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.
