T1204.002 Malicious File
The PDF file contains an embedded script payload, as indicated by the PDF_EMBEDDED_SCRIPT_PAYLOAD heuristic and the presence of an embedded PDF script artifact. The ML classifier and ClamAV detection strongly suggest malicious intent, likely involving exploit execution. The XFA form detected also points to a complex PDF structure often used for exploits. The embedded script is the primary mechanism for delivering the malicious payload.
