MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.002 Spearphishing Attachment T1204.002 Malicious Link

The PDF document contains a large number of embedded links, with a heuristic identifying it as a PDF link farm. One of these links, 'https://ttraff.com/pify?keyword=uc+browser+apk+all+old+version', is flagged as a malicious redirector. The document body, though heavily obfuscated, contains text related to 'Uc browser apk' and the redirector URL, suggesting a lure to trick users into clicking the malicious link. The presence of numerous links hosted on Shopify indicates an attempt to obscure the malicious redirector behind a large number of seemingly benign links.

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.
    URL https://ttraff.com/pify?keyword=uc+browser+apk+all+old+version
