T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1204.002 Malicious Link

The PDF contains a large number of embedded links to external PDF files, identified as a 'PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM' heuristic. This technique is often used to distribute malware or redirect users to malicious sites. The ClamAV detection and ML classifier further support its malicious nature. No scripts were extracted, but the link farm suggests a downloader or dropper functionality.
