Malware Insights
The PDF file contains embedded JavaScript, indicated by the 'PDF_JAVASCRIPT' and 'PDF_JS' heuristics. ClamAV detections 'Win.Trojan.Agent-36166' on both the main file and an extracted artifact strongly suggest malicious intent. The embedded JavaScript is likely used to download and execute a secondary payload, a common technique for malware delivery. The specific nature of the JavaScript's execution is not fully detailed due to potential obfuscation, but its presence alongside the ClamAV detections points to a malicious exploitation attempt.
Heuristics 4
-
ClamAV: Win.Trojan.Agent-36166 critical CLAMAV_DETECTIONClamAV detected this file as malware: Win.Trojan.Agent-36166
-
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.
-
JavaScript action low PDF_JAVASCRIPTPDF contains a /JavaScript action. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
-
