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

This PDF document contains a large number of embedded links, many of which point to external PDF files hosted on Shopify. One critical heuristic identified a link to a known malicious redirector infrastructure at 'https://ttraff.ru/pify?keyword=fresh+lasagna+sheets+iga'. The document body is heavily obfuscated but appears to contain the same URLs. The presence of a link farm and a malicious redirector indicates a phishing or malicious content distribution attempt.

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.
