MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1204.002 Malicious Link

The PDF file was detected as a dropper by ClamAV. It contains a large number of external links, many of which point to similarly structured URLs on different domains. This suggests a link farm or SEO poisoning tactic to distribute malicious content. The document body itself is largely unreadable but contains references to the external links.

Heuristics 4

    Small PDF contains many clickable external PDF links, mostly clustered on one host. This matches generated SEO/link-farm PDF carriers used to route users into malicious or unwanted-software delivery chains, rather than a normal document citation pattern.
