MITRE ATT&CK

T1059.001 JavaScript/JScript T1027 Obfuscated Files or Information

The PDF file contains embedded JavaScript, which is heavily obfuscated using eval() and unescape() calls. This obfuscated script is designed to execute arbitrary code, a common technique for downloading and running further malicious payloads. The ClamAV detection 'Pdf.Exploit.Agent-36082' further confirms its malicious nature. The exact payload or download URL could not be determined due to the heavy obfuscation.

Heuristics 7

ClamAV: Pdf.Exploit.Agent-36082 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION

ClamAV detected this file as malware: Pdf.Exploit.Agent-36082
eval() call high PDF_EVAL

eval() found — commonly used for obfuscated exploit execution (matched inside decoded stream)
unescape() call high PDF_UNESCAPE

unescape() found — often used to decode shellcode in PDF JS exploits (matched inside decoded stream)
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.
String.fromCharCode low PDF_FROMCHARCODE

String.fromCharCode found — used to construct payload strings dynamically. Common in benign JavaScript libraries for codepoint manipulation, so this alone is informational; weaponised use is also caught by the dedicated fromCharCode-stage and exploit-shape rules. (matched inside decoded stream)
Suspicious extracted artifact info EXTRACTED_FILE_STATIC_TRIAGE

One 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.
