The PDF file contains a large number of external links, masquerading as a download for 'Backtrack 5r3 iso free'. The ClamAV detection 'Pdf.Phishing.TtraffRobotInstall-7605656-0' and the PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM heuristic indicate a phishing or traffic-driving campaign. The embedded URLs are likely used to distribute further malicious content.
