MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The PDF contains a critical heuristic firing for a malicious redirector link, pointing to botcraftman.ru. This URL is likely used to host or distribute malware, or to redirect users to phishing pages. The document body, though truncated, indicates it was generated by wkhtmltopdf, a tool sometimes used to create malicious PDFs. The presence of embedded URLs advertising cracked software further supports a malicious intent.

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.
  • PDF link farm advertises cracked/pirated software medium PDF_CRACKED_SOFTWARE_LURE
    PDF contains many clickable links whose targets use cracked-software, keygen, serial-key, or warez vocabulary. These are SEO-spam lure documents that rank for software-piracy searches and route users to fake 'crack' download pages distributing potentially-unwanted programs, adware, or droppers. The PDF itself carries no exploit — the risk is the linked destinations.
  • 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.
