MITRE ATT&CK

T1059.007 JavaScript T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The PDF contains obfuscated JavaScript, identified by heuristics as a stager. The script reconstructs strings to call `unescape` and `charCodeAt`, ultimately decoding and executing a payload. The reconstructed string `U9j%` is used in conjunction with character codes to form a URL or command, which is then executed. This indicates the document is designed to download and run a secondary malicious component.

Heuristics 3

Page-word XOR JavaScript eval stager high PDF_PAGE_WORD_XOR_EVAL_STAGER

PDF JavaScript enumerates rendered page words with getPageNthWord/getPageNumWords, extracts encoded byte fragments, XOR-decodes the stage with char-code helpers, and evals the result. This is an old exploit-kit staging pattern and is not normal document JavaScript.
JavaScript action low PDF_JAVASCRIPT

PDF contains a /JavaScript action. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
Embedded JS stream low PDF_JS

PDF references a /JS stream. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
