MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.001 PowerShell T1566.002 Spearphishing Attachment

The PDF file was flagged by a critical heuristic for linking to known malicious redirector infrastructure. The ML classifier also strongly indicated maliciousness. The embedded URL, http://botcraftman.ru/?lip&keyword=%D0%BA%D1%80%D1%8F%D0%BA+%D1%84%D0%BE%D1%82%D0%BE%D1%88%D0%BE%D0%BF+cs6&charset=utf-8, is the primary indicator of compromise. No scripts were extracted, and the document body was unreadable, limiting further analysis of the specific lure.

Heuristics 2

  • 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.
  • 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.
