MITRE ATT&CK

T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution T1059.007 JavaScript

This PDF document contains an XFA form with embedded JavaScript, flagged by multiple high-severity heuristics as malicious. The script is likely responsible for exploiting a client-side vulnerability to achieve code execution. The presence of an embedded file further suggests a downloader or dropper functionality, aiming to retrieve and execute a secondary payload.

Heuristics 7

XFA form contains risky executable script high CVE related PDF_XFA_SCRIPT

PDF embeds an XFA form whose script block contains exploit, submission/launch, or shell-execution primitives. Ordinary LiveCycle print/update scripts are left as generic XFA/JS signals unless stronger behavior is present.
unescape() call high PDF_UNESCAPE

unescape() found — often used to decode shellcode in PDF JS exploits
Embedded file low PDF_EMBEDDED

PDF embeds a file attachment — could carry an executable or another weaponised document as a nested payload
XFA form low PDF_XFA

PDF uses XML Forms Architecture — can contain script logic
Embedded script payload in PDF stream low PDF_EMBEDDED_SCRIPT_PAYLOAD

PDF stream bytes contain an HTML/XFA <script> tag without accompanying Windows shell-execution primitives — common in accessible XFA forms but worth surfacing for analyst review.
Suspicious extracted artifact info EXTRACTED_FILE_STATIC_TRIAGE

One or more files extracted from inside this sample matched static suspicious-content checks such as script obfuscation, encoded payload blobs, packed data, or execution/download terms.
Embedded URL info EMBEDDED_URL

One or more URLs were extracted from the document. The URL itself is not a detection — see the per-URL labels for which channel (macro, JS, link annotation, document body, ...) reached each URL.
