MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.002 Spearphishing Attachment T1059.001 PowerShell

The PDF file contains a significant number of embedded links, many pointing to a link farm hosted on cdn.shopify.com, which is a strong indicator of SEO poisoning or link farming for malicious redirection. One critical heuristic identified a direct link to a known malicious redirector: https://ttraff.cc/pify?keyword=blank+basketball+court+template+free. The document body, though partially corrupted, contains text related to 'blank basketball court template free' and the malicious URL, suggesting a lure to entice users to click the link. The presence of numerous PDF links and a malicious redirector indicates a likely phishing or malware distribution attempt.

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.
