MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.001 PowerShell
The PDF contains embedded JavaScript streams, with one stream exhibiting an eval() call, indicating code execution. The ML classifier strongly flagged this PDF as malicious. The presence of obfuscated JavaScript suggests the intent is to download and execute a secondary payload. While specific IOCs like URLs or hashes are not directly extracted, the embedded JavaScript files themselves are treated as IOCs due to their suspicious nature and obfuscation.

- Nyx PDF Classifier malicious score 0.9999
Heuristics 4
-
eval() call high PDF_EVALeval() found — commonly used for obfuscated exploit execution (matched inside decoded stream)
-
JavaScript action low PDF_JAVASCRIPTPDF contains a /JavaScript action. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
-
Embedded JS stream low PDF_JSPDF references a /JS stream. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
-
Suspicious extracted artifact info EXTRACTED_FILE_STATIC_TRIAGEOne 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.
