Malware Insights

MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.001 JavaScript/JScript

The critical ClamAV detection indicates the file is malicious, specifically identified as Win.Trojan.Agent-36166. The presence of PDF JavaScript actions and an embedded JS stream strongly suggests that the script is designed to download and execute a secondary payload, a common technique for malware delivery. The document body was unreadable, providing no further context on the lure.

Heuristics 4

  • ClamAV: Win.Trojan.Agent-36166 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Win.Trojan.Agent-36166
  • ClamAV detection on extracted artifact critical EXTRACTED_FILE_CLAMAV
    ClamAV 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.

  • Embedded JS stream low PDF_JS
    PDF references a /JS stream. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
