- When I change the suffix of the file to dxf, the file reading fails
- Based on my research, this netDxf library might be helpful to you. Since I can't test successfully using your .dxf file. You could try testing it to see if it works.

But I tested libraries like netDxf or ACadSharp and they crash with this file.
The DXF format is well documented by Autodesk, so it can be done from scratch... but not easy
