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

The PDF contains a large number of external links, identified as a "PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM", suggesting a tactic to distribute malicious content or engage in SEO abuse. The ClamAV detection as "Pdf.Phishing.TtraffRobotInstall-7605656-0" further supports a phishing or malicious traffic generation intent. The presence of a visual download button reinforces the lure to click on these links.
