T1204 Malicious File T1204.002 Malicious File: User Execution: Malicious Attachment T1059.001 Command and Scripting Interpreter: JavaScript T1059 Command and Scripting Interpreter

This PDF file contains embedded JavaScript that exploits multiple known vulnerabilities in Adobe Reader (CVE-2009-4324, CVE-2009-0927, CVE-2007-5659, CVE-2008-2992). The deobfuscated JavaScript is designed to execute arbitrary code, likely to download and run a second-stage payload. The ClamAV detection further confirms its malicious nature.
