The PDF contains embedded JavaScript that is heavily obfuscated. Heuristics indicate this script acts as a stager, likely XORing and evaluating code to download and execute a second-stage payload. The ML classifier strongly flags this PDF as malicious, supporting the conclusion that it is designed to deliver further malicious content.

Heuristics 3

  • Page-word XOR JavaScript eval stager high PDF_PAGE_WORD_XOR_EVAL_STAGER
    PDF JavaScript enumerates rendered page words with getPageNthWord/getPageNumWords, extracts encoded byte fragments, XOR-decodes the stage with char-code helpers, and evals the result. This is an old exploit-kit staging pattern and is not normal document JavaScript.
  • JavaScript action low PDF_JAVASCRIPT
    PDF contains a /JavaScript action. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
  • 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.
