T1204.002 Malicious File
The file is a PDF containing embedded JavaScript, as indicated by multiple heuristic firings including PDF_JAVASCRIPT and PDF_JS. The ML classifier and ClamAV detection strongly suggest malicious intent, specifically targeting a PDF exploit (Pdf.Exploit.Agent-35572). The embedded JavaScript, named javascript_obj0007_000.js, is likely responsible for downloading and executing a secondary payload, a common technique for initial access.

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.
-
String.fromCharCode low PDF_FROMCHARCODEString.fromCharCode found — used to construct payload strings dynamically. Common in benign JavaScript libraries for codepoint manipulation, so this alone is informational; weaponised use is also caught by the dedicated fromCharCode-stage and exploit-shape rules.
