T1566.002 Spearphishing Attachment T1059.001 PowerShell

The PDF document contains a lure for a free wedding invitation video template, but embeds a link to a known malicious redirector at ttraff.com. The document also contains a large number of links to external PDFs hosted on Shopify, likely for SEO manipulation or to obscure the malicious redirector. No scripts were extracted, and the document body is heavily corrupted, but the presence of the malicious redirector is sufficient evidence of 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.
  • 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.
