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

The PDF file contains a large number of embedded external links, a technique often used for SEO manipulation or to redirect users to phishing or malware distribution sites. The ClamAV detection 'Pdf.Phishing.TtraffRobotInstall-7605656-0' further supports a malicious intent. No scripts were extracted, and the document body contained mostly garbled data, making it difficult to ascertain the exact lure.
