The PDF contains a large number of embedded external links, a technique often used for SEO manipulation or to redirect users to malicious sites. ClamAV detection as 'Pdf.Phishing.TtraffRobotInstall-7605656-0' further supports a malicious classification. The document body, though heavily obfuscated, contains references to 'ImageMagick' and 'Vibrio cholerae bacteria pdf', which appear to be decoys. The primary malicious activity is the mass linking to external PDF files hosted on various domains.
