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

The PDF document contains a large number of external links, many of which are numerically or generically slugged, indicating a link farm or SEO poisoning tactic. The document body mentions 'Pdf reader samsung tablet' and includes a URL that appears to be a lure for such a reader. The primary intent seems to be directing users to potentially malicious websites through these links.

    PDF contains an external URL action
  • Embedded URL info EMBEDDED_URL
