The PDF contains a critical heuristic firing for a malicious redirector link, pointing to 'https://ttraff.link/pify?keyword=pesco%25C3%25A7o+sujo+meme'. Additionally, it exhibits characteristics of a PDF link farm, embedding numerous external links, with the first identified as 'https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0430/9159/1321/files/fofogesevawukolepumaniv.pdf'. The document body, though partially corrupted, contains text related to the redirector's keyword, suggesting a lure. No scripts were extracted from this sample.

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.
