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

The PDF contains a large number of embedded URLs pointing to external PDF files hosted on various domains. This behavior is indicative of a link farm or a redirection scheme, as flagged by the PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM heuristic. The ML classifier and ClamAV detection further confirm the malicious nature of the document. The primary attack pattern involves luring the user to click on these links, which likely lead to further malicious content or phishing pages.
