MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.007 Scripting: JavaScript

The PDF contains embedded JavaScript, indicated by the PDF_JAVASCRIPT and PDF_JS heuristics. The ClamAV detection 'Pdf.Exploit.Agent-36014' strongly suggests this is an exploit. The extracted artifact 'javascript_obj0013_001.js' further confirms the presence of JavaScript, likely used to deliver a malicious payload. The obfuscation indicators within the extracted JavaScript suggest an attempt to evade detection.
