T1059.001 PowerShell
The PDF file contains embedded and obfuscated JavaScript, as indicated by multiple heuristic firings including ClamAV's detection of 'Heuristics.PDF.ObfuscatedNameObject'. The embedded JavaScript stream, named 'javascript_obj0036_000.js', is likely responsible for the malicious behavior. The obfuscated nature of the script prevents a detailed analysis of its specific actions, but it is highly probable that it attempts to download and execute a secondary payload.
Heuristics 5
-
ClamAV: Heuristics.PDF.ObfuscatedNameObject critical CLAMAV_DETECTIONClamAV detected this file as malware: Heuristics.PDF.ObfuscatedNameObject
-
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.
-
String.fromCharCode low PDF_FROMCHARCODEString.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_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.
