MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.007 JavaScript T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution

The PDF file contains embedded JavaScript that utilizes the unescape function and performs a heap spray. This behavior is indicative of an exploit attempting to prepare the system for a second-stage payload. The ML classifier strongly flags this PDF as malicious, supporting the exploit cluster findings. No specific IOCs like URLs or hashes were directly extracted from the script's logic.

Machine Learning

  • Nyx PDF Classifier malicious score 0.9999

Heuristics 4

  • JavaScript action low 2 related findings PDF_JAVASCRIPT
    PDF contains a /JavaScript action. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
  • PDF JavaScript exploit cluster critical PDF_JS_EXPLOIT_CLUSTER
    PDF 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.
