T1059.001 PowerShell
T1204.002 Malicious File
The PDF file contains embedded JavaScript, indicated by multiple heuristic firings including PDF_JAVASCRIPT, PDF_JS, and PDF_EVAL. The ClamAV detection of 'Pdf.Exploit.Agent-35587' strongly suggests a known exploit. The JavaScript appears to be obfuscated, but a reconstructed string 'tp.s' was identified, likely representing a malicious file or URL. This points to an attack pattern where the PDF serves as a dropper for further malicious activity.
Heuristics 6
-
ClamAV: Pdf.Exploit.Agent-35587 critical CLAMAV_DETECTIONClamAV detected this file as malware: Pdf.Exploit.Agent-35587
-
ClamAV detection on extracted artifact critical EXTRACTED_FILE_CLAMAVClamAV flagged at least one file extracted from inside this sample. Even when the wrapping document carries no AV detection of its own, a hit on the carved artifact is a strong indicator the sample is a delivery vehicle.
-
eval() call high PDF_EVALeval() found — commonly used for obfuscated exploit execution
-
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.
-
Suspicious extracted artifact info EXTRACTED_FILE_STATIC_TRIAGEOne or more files extracted from inside this sample matched static suspicious-content checks such as script obfuscation, encoded payload blobs, packed data, or execution/download terms.
