Malware Insights
The PDF file contains embedded JavaScript, indicated by the PDF_JAVASCRIPT and PDF_JS heuristics. The presence of a high-severity PDF_EVAL heuristic and ML_NYX_PDF_MALICIOUS classification strongly suggests malicious intent. The extracted JavaScript, though obfuscated, likely performs actions such as downloading and executing a second-stage payload, as suggested by the 'Script execution terms' and 'Script obfuscation indicators' in the static triage. The specific obfuscated string '034049018037064071066045040063047120038035054002058023070014053044126012051102026002002123031016008' is part of this malicious script.

eval() call high PDF_EVALeval() found — commonly used for obfuscated exploit execution
-
Suspicious extracted artifact medium 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.
-
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.
