MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1059.007 JavaScript

The PDF contains a critical heuristic firing indicating a link to known malicious redirector infrastructure. The embedded URL `https://traffmen.ru/aws?keyword=ramadan+2020+dates+iraq` is the primary indicator of malicious intent. While no scripts were explicitly extracted, the PDF structure and the presence of embedded URLs suggest an attempt to lure the user to a malicious site, likely as part of a phishing or malware delivery campaign.

Heuristics 2

  • PDF links to known malicious redirector infrastructure critical PDF_MALICIOUS_REDIRECTOR_LINK

  • 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.
