The PDF contains a large number of embedded links to external PDF files, a technique often used for SEO manipulation or to distribute further malicious content. ClamAV detected this file as Pdf.Dropper.Agent, indicating it functions as a dropper. While no scripts were explicitly extracted, the PDF structure and the sheer volume of links suggest an attempt to redirect users to potentially harmful resources.
