MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.002 Spearphishing Attachment T1204.002 Malicious Link

The PDF contains a large number of embedded links, identified by the PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM heuristic, to various domains. The SE_INVOICE_LURE heuristic indicates a fake invoice or payment lure, which is consistent with the document body mentioning 'Airasia boarding pass no printer'. The ClamAV detection further confirms its malicious nature. The primary attack pattern involves tricking the user into clicking on one of the numerous malicious links.
