MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The sample is a PDF document that contains a large number of external links, many of which point to other PDF files. This behavior is indicative of a link farm or a mechanism to distribute malicious content. The presence of a critical heuristic firing for PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM and ClamAV detection as Pdf.Phishing.Trojan suggests malicious intent. The document body, though heavily obfuscated, appears to be related to educational content, which is a common lure.
