T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment
The PDF file contains embedded JavaScript streams, flagged by multiple heuristics. The JavaScript code appears to be obfuscated but attempts to construct and execute a command. Specifically, it constructs the string 'var ybENPitgqA15 = /hi av haxosict;;' and then calls a method that likely executes it. This behavior is indicative of a dropper or downloader, aiming to fetch and run a secondary malicious payload. The ClamAV detection as 'Pdf.Dropper.Agent-9448474-0' further supports this assessment.
