The PDF file was flagged by a critical heuristic for containing a link to known malicious redirector infrastructure. The ML classifier also strongly indicated maliciousness. While no scripts were extracted, the presence of the malicious URL suggests the document's primary purpose is to redirect the user to a harmful site. The document body was unreadable, preventing further analysis of its content.

Heuristics 2

  • 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.
  • 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.
    URL http://botcraftman.ru/?lip&keyword=%D1%81%D1%85%D0%B5%D0%BC%D0%B0+%D1%8D%D0%BB%D0%B5%D0%BA%D1%82%D1%80%D0%BE%D0%BF%D1%80%D0%BE%D0%B2%D0%BE%D0%B4%D0%BA%D0%B8+%D0%BB%D0%B0%D0%B4%D0%B0+%D0%BA%D0%B0%D0%BB%D0%B8%D0%BD%D0%B0&charset=utf-8
