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

The PDF contains a large number of external links, many of which point to other PDF files. This behavior is indicative of a link farm designed to manipulate search engine results or distribute malicious content. The ML classifier strongly supports the malicious verdict. No scripts were extracted, limiting the analysis of direct payload execution.
