MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The PDF contains a large number of embedded links to external PDF files, as indicated by the PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM heuristic. This suggests a link-farming or SEO manipulation tactic, potentially to distribute further malicious content or improve the ranking of malicious sites. While no scripts were explicitly extracted, the nature of the embedded links and the ML_NYX_PDF_MALICIOUS and CLAMAV_DETECTION firings strongly indicate malicious intent, likely as a spearphishing attachment.
