MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The PDF contains a large number of external links, many pointing to Weebly and cdn.sqhk.co domains, which is indicative of a link farm. The ClamAV detection and ML classifier strongly suggest malicious intent, specifically a phishing or trojan distribution. While no scripts were explicitly extracted, the PDF structure and embedded URIs point towards an attempt to redirect users to malicious content.
