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

The PDF contains a large number of embedded links to external PDF files, a technique often used for SEO poisoning or to distribute malicious content. The heuristic 'SE_CALLBACK_LURE' indicates the document body may contain deceptive text, such as a fake billing or security issue, to trick users into interacting with the malicious links. ClamAV detection further confirms its malicious nature as 'Pdf.Phishing.TtraffRobotInstall'. The primary intent appears to be directing users to potentially malicious websites through the numerous provided URLs.
