The PDF contains a link to a known malicious redirector, botcraftman.ru, which is flagged by heuristics. The ML classifier also strongly indicates maliciousness. The embedded URL is designed to look like a search result for software, likely to trick users into clicking. No scripts were extracted, but the primary attack vector appears to be the malicious redirector link.

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.
