MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1059.001 PowerShell T1204.001 Malicious Link

This PDF file was flagged as malicious by an ML classifier and contains numerous embedded URLs. Several heuristics indicate it functions as a link farm, with many URLs pointing to SEO-optimized PDF files hosted on various domains. One prominent URL, https://ttraff.ru/wb?keyword=capital%20letter%20worksheets, appears to be a redirector to malicious infrastructure. The document body, though containing garbled text, also includes many of these suspicious URLs, reinforcing the link farm and redirection attack pattern.

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.
