MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.001 PowerShell
The PDF contains embedded JavaScript, which is flagged by multiple heuristics including PDF_JAVASCRIPT and PDF_JS. The presence of a high-severity PDF_EVAL rule indicates that the JavaScript is likely obfuscated and uses eval() to execute arbitrary code. The ML classifier strongly supports the malicious nature of the file. The embedded JavaScript file, javascript_obj0001_000.js, is the primary IOC. The script's intent is to download and execute a second-stage payload.

Heuristics 4
-
eval() call high PDF_EVALeval() found — commonly used for obfuscated exploit execution (matched inside decoded stream)
-
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.
