MITRE ATT&CK

T1059.001 PowerShell T1204.002 Malicious File

The PDF contains embedded JavaScript, indicated by the PDF_JAVASCRIPT and PDF_JS heuristics. The presence of an eval() call (PDF_EVAL) and a high ML classifier score (ML_NYX_PDF_MALICIOUS) strongly suggest malicious intent. The extracted artifact 'javascript_obj0007_000.js' is likely the payload, designed to be executed by the PDF, potentially leading to further malicious activity.
