MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.002 Spearphishing Attachment
T1059.001 PowerShell
T1204.002 Malicious Link
The PDF contains a malicious redirector link to 'ttraff.com' which is associated with malicious activity. It also features a large number of external PDF links, many hosted on Shopify, suggesting a link farm for SEO manipulation or to obscure the final destination. The document body and heuristics indicate lures for MFA harvesting and callback phishing, suggesting a multi-stage attack. The primary malicious IOC is the ttraff.com redirector URL.
Machine Learning
- Nyx PDF Classifier malicious score 1.0000
Heuristics 8
-
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.
-
Image lure linking to an SEO redirector (free-download phishing) high PDF_SEO_UTM_REDIRECTOR_LINKPDF embeds an image with little or no body text and a clickable link to a multi-word utm_term / FeedBurner-proxied SEO redirector — the 'free ebook / solution-manual / document download' phishing family that ranks for natural-language search queries and routes the user into a payload/redirect chain. The PDF carries no exploit; the risk is the linked destination. Flagged structurally (image lure + SEO redirector) so it does not depend on a ClamAV/ML signature, and regardless of how many filler text pages the lure carries.
-
Password-protected archive handoff high SE_PASSWORD_ARCHIVE_LUREDocument gives password instructions for an archive or attachment — often used to keep payloads encrypted until after gateway scanning
-
MFA / one-time-code harvesting lure high SE_MFA_LUREDocument asks for a one-time code, authenticator approval, or MFA confirmation — consistent with credential phishing kits that steal session tokens or abuse multi-factor authentication
-
Callback phishing phone lure medium SE_CALLBACK_LUREDocument asks the user to call a phone number in billing, refund, subscription, fraud, or security context — consistent with callback phishing or tech-support scam patterns. Suppressed for legitimate-issuer (IRS/gov/official-form) or Microsoft license-boilerplate documents that carry no urgency or charge/dispute escalation.
-
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.com/pify?keyword=student+finance+secret+answer+reset In PDF document text
