The PDF contains a large number of embedded links to other PDF files, disguised as a "Canada visa form". This heuristic, combined with ClamAV detection and ML classification, strongly suggests a phishing or malware distribution campaign. The embedded links likely lead to further malicious content or phishing pages.
