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

The PDF contains numerous external links, many of which point to domains that appear to be part of a link farm. The document body, though partially corrupted, includes a URL that is also present in the heuristics, suggesting a lure to external content. The ML classifier strongly indicated maliciousness, and the PDF structure itself was flagged for containing a mass of external links.
