MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.002 Spearphishing Attachment T1204.001 User Execution: Malicious Link T1059.001 Command and Scripting Interpreter: PowerShell

The PDF file contains a large number of external links, many pointing to PDF files hosted on various domains, which is indicative of a link farm. One of the primary links, 'https://ttraff.cc/pify?keyword=android+17+power+level', is flagged as a malicious redirector. This suggests the document's purpose is to direct users to malicious content, likely for phishing or malware delivery. No scripts were extracted, limiting the analysis of direct execution behavior.

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.
