MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.001 PowerShell

The PDF file contains embedded JavaScript, indicated by multiple heuristic firings including PDF_JAVASCRIPT and PDF_JS. The ClamAV detection for Heuristics.PDF.ObfuscatedNameObject further suggests malicious intent. The embedded JavaScript stream, named 'javascript_obj0012_000.js', is likely responsible for executing the malicious payload. The document body is heavily obfuscated and does not provide clear textual clues about the attack's purpose.
