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

The PDF file contains a large number of embedded URLs pointing to external PDF files. This technique, identified by the PDF_SEO_LINK_FARM heuristic, is commonly used to redirect users to malicious sites or to host phishing content. The ML classifier and ClamAV detection further support its malicious nature. No scripts were extracted, but the extensive link farm indicates a likely phishing or malware distribution attempt.
