Getting this when uploading/attaching PDFs today. It's well within the size limit (5 MB).

I have not been able to recreate the issue using a few PDFs that I have and one (attached) that I created.

Do you have the PDF somewhere online that you're trying to upload? So that we can inspect it?

What browser are you using? I'm not getting the error message either and the PDF you linked to, which I downloaded and then attached here, attaches without issue for me:

You're right, there is no problem replying to this thread. But when I edit my thread here, I get the error when attaching it to the first post.
