Malware Insights
The PDF contains a link to a known malicious redirector, ttraff.ru, which is designed to lead users to malicious content. The document also contains a large number of embedded links, many pointing to Shopify domains, which is characteristic of SEO link farms used to distribute malware. The 'SE_CLICKFIX' heuristic indicates the document likely instructs the user to manually execute a command, bypassing macro restrictions. The embedded URL in the document body, 'https://ttraff.ru/pify?keyword=project+cerberus+apk+1.+4.+5', is the primary indicator of malicious intent.
Heuristics 4
-
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.
-
ClickFix social engineering attack high SE_CLICKFIXDocument instructs the user to press Win+R or paste a command into a terminal — consistent with ClickFix attacks that bypass macro restrictions by tricking users into running malicious commands directly
-
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=project+cerberus+apk+1.+4.+5
