The PDF contains a critical heuristic firing indicating a malicious redirector link. The embedded URL 'https://ttraff.link/wix?keyword=ultra+b+gba+game+apk' is directly associated with this malicious activity. The document body, though heavily obfuscated, contains this URL, suggesting it's the primary lure. The ML classifier also strongly flagged this PDF as malicious.

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.
