MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1204.002 Malicious Link

The PDF contains a large number of external links, identified by the PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM heuristic, pointing to various domains. The ML_NYX_PDF_MALICIOUS classifier also strongly indicated maliciousness. The document body, though partially obfuscated, contains the title 'Esperanza matematica en probabilidad y estadistica' and references wkhtmltopdf, suggesting a lure document. The primary attack pattern involves redirecting the user to a link farm, likely for SEO poisoning or to host further malicious content.
