MITRE ATT&CK

T1059.007 JavaScript T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution

This PDF file contains XFA (XML Forms Architecture) which is known to be a vector for exploits. The embedded JavaScript, specifically identified as a heap-spray exploit, is designed to execute arbitrary code. The ML classifier and ClamAV detection strongly indicate malicious intent, likely to download and execute a second-stage payload.

Heuristics 9

XFA form contains risky executable script high CVE related PDF_XFA_SCRIPT

PDF embeds an XFA form whose script block contains exploit, submission/launch, or shell-execution primitives. Ordinary LiveCycle print/update scripts are left as generic XFA/JS signals unless stronger behavior is present.
XFA JavaScript heap-spray exploit code critical PDF_XFA_HEAP_SPRAY

PDF contains XFA script content with heap-spray or shellcode-like JavaScript markers such as large encoded word sequences, util.pack, large arrays, or spray variable names. This is a weaponised Adobe Reader exploit pattern, not a normal interactive form.
ClamAV: Pdf.Exploit.Agent-6136306-0 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION

ClamAV detected this file as malware: Pdf.Exploit.Agent-6136306-0
eval() call high PDF_EVAL

eval() found — commonly used for obfuscated exploit execution
XFA form low PDF_XFA

PDF uses XML Forms Architecture — can contain script logic
String.fromCharCode low PDF_FROMCHARCODE

String.fromCharCode found — used to construct payload strings dynamically. Common in benign JavaScript libraries for codepoint manipulation, so this alone is informational; weaponised use is also caught by the dedicated fromCharCode-stage and exploit-shape rules.
Embedded script payload in PDF stream low PDF_EMBEDDED_SCRIPT_PAYLOAD

PDF stream bytes contain an HTML/XFA <script> tag without accompanying Windows shell-execution primitives — common in accessible XFA forms but worth surfacing for analyst review.
Suspicious extracted artifact info EXTRACTED_FILE_STATIC_TRIAGE

One or more files extracted from inside this sample matched static suspicious-content checks such as script obfuscation, encoded payload blobs, packed data, or execution/download terms.
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.
