MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.001 PowerShell T1027 Obfuscated Files or Information

The PDF file contains embedded JavaScript streams that utilize eval() and unescape() functions, indicating obfuscation. The heuristics suggest that this JavaScript is designed to download and execute a secondary payload. While the exact URL or execution method is not directly extractable due to obfuscation, the presence of these techniques strongly points to a malicious downloader. No specific family could be identified.

Heuristics 5

  • eval() call high PDF_EVAL
    eval() found — commonly used for obfuscated exploit execution (matched inside decoded stream)
  • unescape() call high PDF_UNESCAPE
    unescape() found — often used to decode shellcode in PDF JS exploits (matched inside decoded stream)
  • JavaScript action low PDF_JAVASCRIPT
    PDF contains a /JavaScript action. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
  • Embedded JS stream low PDF_JS
    PDF references a /JS stream. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
  • 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.

Extracted artifacts 2

Files carved from inside the sample during analysis.
