The PDF file contains a large number of embedded external links, a technique commonly used in SEO poisoning and phishing campaigns to redirect users to malicious sites. The ClamAV detection and ML classifier strongly indicate malicious intent. The document body is heavily obfuscated and does not provide clear textual lures, but the sheer volume of linked PDFs suggests a coordinated effort to distribute malicious content.
