T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The PDF contains a critical heuristic firing for a malicious redirector link pointing to 'https://cctraff.ru/aws?utm_term=java+jdk++windows+8.+1+64+bit'. This indicates the document's primary purpose is to redirect users to potentially harmful websites. The ML classifier and ClamAV also flagged the file as malicious, supporting this assessment. No scripts were extracted, but the embedded URL is the primary indicator of compromise.
