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

This PDF document contains a large number of external links, many of which are dynamically generated and point to PDF files. The document body presents a fake "HP boot error" message to trick the user into clicking on one of the malicious links. The PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM heuristic indicates a link farm strategy, and the ML_NYX_PDF_MALICIOUS model strongly classified it as malicious. The primary IOC is the initial lure URL.
