MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.007 JavaScript
T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment
The PDF file contains obfuscated JavaScript, including multiple eval() calls, which is a strong indicator of malicious intent. The script is designed to download and execute a secondary payload, as evidenced by the PDF_JS_EXPLOIT_CLUSTER heuristic and the presence of embedded JavaScript streams. The obfuscation and exploit cluster suggest a deliberate attempt to compromise the user's system.
Machine Learning
- Nyx PDF Classifier malicious score 1.0000
Heuristics 5
-
PDF JavaScript exploit cluster critical PDF_JS_EXPLOIT_CLUSTERPDF combines an executable JavaScript/action surface with exploit staging indicators such as eval/unescape/fromCharCode, XFA script content, or a related CVE pattern. Benign form JavaScript remains low-severity, but this correlated cluster is high-confidence malicious behavior.
-
eval() call high PDF_EVALeval() found — commonly used for obfuscated exploit execution
-
JavaScript action low PDF_JAVASCRIPTPDF contains a /JavaScript action. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
-
Embedded JS stream low PDF_JSPDF references a /JS stream. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
