MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.001 JavaScript
T1204.002 Malicious File
The PDF file contains embedded JavaScript and a Flash object (SWF file), as indicated by the PDF_JAVASCRIPT, PDF_JS, and PDF_RICHMEDIA heuristics. The critical ClamAV detection and the presence of eval() calls suggest that the JavaScript is designed to execute malicious code. The embedded SWF file, ANChDCzpdMf.swf, is likely the next stage of the attack, potentially delivering a further payload. The extracted JavaScript files, javascript_obj0006_000.js and legacy_pdfkit_stage_000.js, are also considered IOCs.
Heuristics 8
-
ClamAV: Pdf.Exploit.Agent-35955 critical CLAMAV_DETECTIONClamAV detected this file as malware: Pdf.Exploit.Agent-35955
-
ClamAV detection on extracted artifact critical EXTRACTED_FILE_CLAMAVClamAV flagged at least one file extracted from inside this sample. Even when the wrapping document carries no AV detection of its own, a hit on the carved artifact is a strong indicator the sample is a delivery vehicle.
-
RichMedia (Flash) high PDF_RICHMEDIAPDF contains /RichMedia (Adobe Flash) which is a historic exploit vector
-
eval() call high PDF_EVALeval() found — commonly used for obfuscated exploit execution
-
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.
-
Embedded file low PDF_EMBEDDEDPDF embeds a file attachment — could carry an executable or another weaponised document as a nested payload
-
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.
