The PDF file contains a large number of embedded links to external PDF files, a technique often used for SEO manipulation or to distribute malicious content. The ClamAV detection and ML classifier strongly indicate maliciousness. The embedded URLs, such as http://dogmoda.club/uploads/2020/01/27/5cb0ec077c01235.pdf, are likely part of a phishing or malware distribution campaign. No scripts were extracted from this sample.
