MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.007 JavaScript T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The PDF file contains obfuscated JavaScript, flagged by multiple heuristics including ML_NYX_PDF_MALICIOUS and ClamAV. The JavaScript attempts to download and execute a payload from a URL, indicated by the reconstructed string '_KB="\\x48\\x54\\x54\\x50\\x3a\\x2f\\x2f\\x77\\x77\\x77\\x2e\\x65\\x78\\x61\\x6d\\x70\\x6c\\x65\\x2e\\x63\\x6f\\x6d\\x2f\\x70\\x61\\x79\\x6c\\x6f\\x61\\x64\\x2e\\x65\\x78\\x65"'. This indicates a downloader or droppper functionality, typical of initial stages of malware infection.
