MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.001 PowerShell T1204.002 Malicious File

The PDF file was flagged by ClamAV as Pdf.Dropper.Agent-7237044-0. Static analysis revealed embedded JavaScript streams, with one deobfuscated script being particularly large. This suggests the script is responsible for downloading and executing a secondary payload, a common dropper behavior. The presence of JavaScript actions and embedded JS streams points to T1059.001 and T1204.002.

Heuristics 5

  • ClamAV: Pdf.Dropper.Agent-7237044-0 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Pdf.Dropper.Agent-7237044-0
  • 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.
  • syncAnnotScan annotation-staging primitive low PDF_FOXIT_SYNCANNOTSCAN
    PDF JavaScript calls syncAnnotScan() — a no-op annotation-enumeration primitive used by exploit-kit JavaScript to stage payload reads from annotation /Subject fields before eval(). Not a vulnerable sink itself; rarely seen in legitimate PDFs. (matched in decompressed stream)
