Malware Insights
The PDF document contains numerous embedded links, many of which point to known malicious redirector infrastructure or link farms. The primary URL, 'https://ttraff.ru/pify?keyword=sociolinguistics+book+by+hudson+pdf', is flagged as a malicious redirector. The document body, though heavily obfuscated, contains text related to 'sociolinguistics book by hudson pdf', suggesting a lure to trick users into downloading potentially harmful content disguised as academic material. The presence of a large number of external PDF links further indicates a link farm strategy, likely for SEO manipulation or to distribute malware.
Machine Learning
- Nyx PDF Classifier malicious score 1.0000
Heuristics 5
-
PDF links to known malicious redirector infrastructure critical PDF_MALICIOUS_REDIRECTOR_LINKPDF 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_FARMSmall 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.
-
Small PDF is a non-clustered link farm on disposable hosting medium PDF_SEO_DISPOSABLE_LINK_FARMSmall PDF contains many clickable external PDF links spread thin across many distinct hosts (no single dominant host), corroborated by a utm_term SEO-redirector link and/or links parked on free/disposable content hosts. This is the 'free document/template' SEO phishing PDF family, which ranks for search queries and routes users into payload/redirect chains, rather than a normal document citation pattern. The PDF itself carries no exploit — the risk is the linked destinations.
-
Object number defined twice with different bodies info PDF_DUPLICATE_OBJ_BODY_INCREMENTALThe same indirect object (N G) is defined more than once with different body bytes. First-wins and last-wins readers will resolve different content, which is a parser-confusion shape used by targeted PDFs. Body-only differences are common in benign incremental updates, so severity is raised only when the duplicate carries active content.
-
Embedded URL info EMBEDDED_URLOne 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 https://ttraff.ru/pify?keyword=sociolinguistics+book+by+hudson+pdf In PDF document text
