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

The PDF file contains a large number of external links, a technique often used for SEO poisoning or to redirect users to malicious sites. The ML classifier strongly indicated maliciousness. The primary attack pattern involves luring users to external URLs hosted on domains like techtable.co and 74-123-78-154.mgwnet.com, which likely serve further malicious content or phishing pages.
