MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.001 PowerShell T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1204.002 Malicious File

The PDF file contains embedded JavaScript, as indicated by the PDF_JAVASCRIPT and PDF_JS heuristics. ClamAV also flagged it as Heuristics.PDF.ObfuscatedNameObject, suggesting malicious intent. The embedded JavaScript, named 'javascript_obj0012_000.js', is likely responsible for downloading and executing a second-stage payload. The presence of XFA form elements (PDF_XFA) can sometimes be used to host or trigger scripts.
