The sample is a PDF file flagged by ClamAV as a phishing trojan and by a machine learning classifier. It contains a large number of external links, including a link farm heuristic firing, suggesting a malicious intent to redirect users. The document body, though heavily obfuscated, contains a lure related to 'The Crown Netflix cast season 4'. No scripts were extracted, but the presence of numerous external links and the phishing detection indicate a likely attempt to lead users to malicious websites.
