MITRE ATT&CK

T1059.001 JavaScript T1204.001 Malicious Link T1204.002 Malicious File

This PDF file contains embedded JavaScript that leverages known vulnerabilities, specifically CVE-2009-0927 (Collab.getIcon) and CVE-2007-5659 (Collab.collectEmailInfo). The JavaScript is obfuscated and uses eval() to execute, indicating an attempt to download and run a secondary payload or perform other malicious actions. The ClamAV detection further supports its malicious nature.

Heuristics 7

Collab.getIcon — CVE-2009-0927 critical CVE exact CVE_2009_0927

PDF JavaScript calls Collab.getIcon — CVE-2009-0927 is a stack buffer overflow in Adobe Reader triggered by Collab.getIcon() with a crafted argument. Allows arbitrary code execution. (identified after JavaScript deobfuscation)
Collab.collectEmailInfo — CVE-2007-5659 critical CVE exact CVE_2007_5659

PDF JavaScript calls Collab.collectEmailInfo — CVE-2007-5659 is a buffer overflow in Adobe Reader triggered by a long argument or heap-sprayed message field passed to Collab.collectEmailInfo(). Part of a series of Acrobat JS API exploits. (identified after JavaScript deobfuscation)
ClamAV: Pdf.Exploit.Agent-35931 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION

ClamAV detected this file as malware: Pdf.Exploit.Agent-35931
eval() call high PDF_EVAL

eval() found — commonly used for obfuscated exploit execution (matched inside decoded stream)
JavaScript action low PDF_JAVASCRIPT

PDF contains a /JavaScript action. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
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.
