MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The PDF contains a large number of external links, many of which are SEO-optimized, suggesting a link farm or phishing attempt. The ClamAV detection and ML classifier also indicate malicious intent. The document body, though heavily obfuscated, contains keywords related to downloading a book, which is likely a lure to encourage users to click on the malicious links.
