MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.002 Spearphishing Attachment
T1059.001 PowerShell
The PDF file contains a critical heuristic firing for a malicious redirector link, specifically pointing to 'ttraff.ru' with a 'sims 4 skidrow' keyword. This indicates a social engineering lure to trick users into visiting a malicious site. The file also exhibits characteristics of a link farm, with numerous embedded links, many pointing to Shopify domains, likely for SEO manipulation to increase visibility. No scripts were extracted, and the document body was heavily obfuscated, but the primary attack vector appears to be the malicious redirector.
Heuristics 3
-
PDF links to known malicious redirector infrastructure critical PDF_MALICIOUS_REDIRECTOR_LINKPDF 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_FARMSmall 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_URLOne 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.ru/pify?keyword=sims+4+skidrow
