MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.002 Spearphishing Attachment T1059.001 PowerShell T1204.002 Malicious Link

The PDF contains multiple heuristics indicating malicious redirection and a link farm. Specifically, it links to a known malicious redirector at 'ttraff.cc' and a large number of PDFs hosted on Shopify, suggesting a coordinated effort to distribute malicious content. The ML classifier strongly supports the malicious verdict. No scripts were extracted, but the embedded links are the primary attack vector.

Heuristics 5

  • 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.
  • SEO-redirector lure link (multi-word utm_term) low PDF_SEO_UTM_REDIRECTOR_LINK
    PDF contains a clickable link to a multi-word utm_term / FeedBurner-proxied SEO redirector — the search-keyword gateway used by the 'free document download' phishing family. Surfaced as an IOC; on its own this is a low-confidence signal.
  • Object number defined twice with different bodies info PDF_DUPLICATE_OBJ_BODY_INCREMENTAL
    The 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_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.
