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

The PDF contains a lure instructing the user to enable macros or editing, which is a common technique for malware delivery. It also contains a mass external PDF link farm, with multiple links pointing to suspicious domains. One critical heuristic identified a PDF link to known malicious redirector infrastructure, specifically 'https://ttraff.cc/wp3?keyword=how+to+copy+protected+pdf+file#how+to+copy+protected+pdf+file'. This suggests the document's primary purpose is to redirect the user to malicious content.

Heuristics 4

  • 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.
  • Macro/content-enable lure medium SE_ENABLE_LURE
    Document instructs the user to enable macros or editing — a common technique used by malware droppers to bypass Office macro security settings
  • 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.
