MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.002 Spearphishing Attachment T1204.002 Malicious Link

The PDF file contains a large number of embedded links to external PDF documents, a technique commonly used for SEO poisoning and phishing. The ClamAV detection 'Pdf.Phishing.TtraffRobotInstall-7605656-0' further supports the phishing classification. The document body, though heavily obfuscated, contains references to 'The darkest minds imdb parents guide', likely a lure to attract user clicks.
