MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1204.002 Malicious Link

The PDF contains a large number of external links, many of which are hosted on domains that appear to be part of an SEO link farm. The document body text, though partially corrupted, includes a deceptive title related to employee discounts, suggesting a lure to generate traffic to these external sites. No scripts were extracted, and the primary malicious activity appears to be the distribution of numerous links to potentially malicious or spam content.

    PDF contains an external URL action
  • Embedded URL info EMBEDDED_URL
    One or more URLs were extracted from the document. The URL itself is not a detection — see the per-URL labels for which channel (macro, JS, link annotation, document body, ...) reached each URL.
