T1204.001 User Execution: Malicious Link
T1059.001 Command and Scripting Interpreter: PowerShell
The PDF contains a lure related to a 'Canadian citizenship test 2020 ontario pdf' and embeds a link that redirects to malicious infrastructure. The document body also contains numerous URLs, many hosted on Shopify, which are likely part of a link farm designed to improve search engine ranking for malicious content. The primary malicious URL is ttraff.cc, which is flagged as a redirector. The overall pattern suggests a social engineering attack to trick users into visiting a malicious site, potentially for credential theft or malware delivery.
