T1059.001 PowerShell
The PDF file contains embedded JavaScript, indicated by the PDF_JAVASCRIPT and PDF_JS heuristics. The presence of PDF_EVAL and PDF_FROMCHARCODE firings, along with the extracted JavaScript files, suggests that the script is obfuscated and likely uses eval() and String.fromCharCode() to execute malicious code. This pattern is commonly used to download and execute further payloads.
Heuristics 5
-
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.
-
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.
