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

This PDF file was flagged by multiple heuristics, including ClamAV and an ML classifier, as malicious. The PDF contains a large number of embedded links to other PDF files hosted on various domains, suggesting a link farm or distribution mechanism. The document body text, while appearing benign, is likely a lure to disguise the malicious nature of the embedded links.
