MITRE ATT&CK

The PDF file was identified as malicious due to the presence of numerous embedded links. One critical heuristic firing indicates a PDF_MALICIOUS_REDIRECTOR_LINK, pointing to 'https://ttraff.ru/pify?keyword=supportive+model+of+organizational+behavior+pdf', which is a known malicious redirector. Another critical heuristic, PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM, highlights a large number of external PDF links, with 'https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0428/7909/0855/files/28731917342.pdf' being the first identified. The document body, though heavily obfuscated, contains the same URL as the malicious redirector, suggesting an attempt to lure users to a harmful site.

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.
