The embedded URL, https://cctraff.ru/aws?keyword=scaling+worksheet+pdf, is the primary indicator of malicious intent. The ML classifier also strongly flagged this PDF as malicious. The document body, though heavily obfuscated, contains this URL, suggesting its purpose is to lure the user to a malicious site.
