MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.001 PowerShell
T1204.002 Malicious Link
The PDF file contains embedded JavaScript, with a high-confidence heuristic detecting an eval() call. This suggests the script is designed to execute arbitrary code, likely to download and run a second-stage payload. The presence of JavaScript actions and optional content groups further supports this attack vector. No specific family could be identified.
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.
-
Optional Content Group with action trigger low PDF_OPTIONAL_CONTENTOptional Content Group (layer) co-occurs with an action trigger — content can be selectively hidden from viewers or scanners while the action still fires on open
