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

The PDF contains a large number of embedded links to external PDF files, a technique commonly used for SEO poisoning or phishing. The ClamAV detection 'Pdf.Phishing.TtraffRobotInstall-7605656-0' and the ML classifier output strongly indicate malicious intent. The document body's mention of 'Happy birthday gift image' is likely a lure to entice users to click the malicious links.
