This PDF document contains a link that redirects to known malicious infrastructure, identified by the URL 'https://cctraff.ru/strik?keyword=dsc+degree+in+usa'. The document body, though heavily obfuscated, contains this URL and text suggesting a lure related to a "Dsc degree in usa". The presence of numerous external PDF links, many pointing to S3 buckets, further indicates a link farm or SEO poisoning attempt to distribute malicious content.

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.
