PDF_SEARCH_REDIRECT_OBFUSCATED_TARGET — Search-engine open redirect to obfuscated target

high PDF_SEARCH_REDIRECT_OBFUSCATED_TARGET

What it means

PDF link launders its destination through a search-engine redirect whose unwrapped target carries phishing obfuscation.

Why it fires

The clickable link wraps its real destination in a google.<tld>/url?q= search redirect, borrowing Google's domain trust, while the unwrapped target hides behind a fake dotted cgi.bin path segment or runs of percent-encoded non-ASCII filler. Requiring both the wrapper and the target obfuscation keeps links merely copy-pasted from search results out of scope.
