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

This PDF file contains embedded JavaScript, identified by multiple heuristics as a stager for decoding and executing malicious content. The JavaScript function `test2` appears to decode a string from the `cc` object, which is then evaluated by `eval(s)`. This suggests the script's primary purpose is to download and execute a second-stage payload. The ClamAV detection name further supports its malicious nature.
