The PDF contains a critical heuristic firing for a malicious redirector link, specifically pointing to 'ttraff.cc'. The document body, though heavily obfuscated, contains this URL and appears to be a lure related to 'chronopost' and package delivery. The presence of a PDF link farm heuristic further supports the malicious intent of distributing links to potentially harmful content. No scripts were extracted from this sample.

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.
    URL https://ttraff.cc/wix?keyword=paris+bercy+tolbiac+chronopost+t%25C3%25A9l%25C3%25A9p
