T1059.007 JavaScript
The PDF file contains embedded JavaScript, which is heavily obfuscated and uses eval() to execute its content. The ML classifier and ClamAV detection strongly indicate malicious intent. The script's obfuscation suggests it is designed to download and execute a secondary payload, typical of a dropper. The presence of multiple JavaScript streams and the ML_NYX_PDF_MALICIOUS heuristic further support this assessment.
