T1566.002 Spearphishing Attachment T1059.001 PowerShell

The PDF contains a large number of external links, many of which point to a malicious redirector. The primary malicious link identified is https://ttraff.cc/pify?keyword=odbc+canonical+date+format, which is likely used to redirect the user to a malicious site. The document body is heavily obfuscated but contains references to the malicious URL and a large number of benign-looking PDF files hosted on Shopify. The presence of a malicious redirector and a link farm indicates a phishing or scam 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.
