MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.002 Spearphishing Attachment
T1204.002 Malicious Link
The PDF file contains a link to a known malicious redirector, disguised with a keyword suggesting a passport application form. The document body, though heavily obfuscated, also contains the same malicious URL and numerous other URLs hosted on Shopify, likely as part of a link farm to improve search engine ranking for the malicious lure. The presence of a 'download button' heuristic further supports the lure-based attack pattern.
Heuristics 4
-
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.
-
Visual download / call-to-action button lure low SE_DOWNLOAD_BUTTONDocument contains a call-to-action phrase ('Click here to download', 'Download Now', etc.) — low-signal unless other findings point to a malicious workflow
-
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.cc/pify?keyword=passport+application+form+kenya+2020+pdf
