T1059.001 PowerShell
T1059.007 JavaScript
The PDF contains embedded JavaScript, which is further obfuscated using eval() and unescape() calls. A secondary embedded PDF also exhibits suspicious static findings. The presence of JavaScript and obfuscation techniques suggests the execution of a malicious payload. The document body contains what appears to be obfuscated code or data, including the string '10.0.1.434', which is included as an IOC.
Heuristics 7
-
eval() call high PDF_EVALeval() found — commonly used for obfuscated exploit execution
-
unescape() call high PDF_UNESCAPEunescape() found — often used to decode shellcode in PDF JS exploits
-
Secondary embedded PDF body has suspicious static findings high POLYGLOT_CHILD_PDF_STATIC_TRIAGEA valid PDF body was found at a nonzero offset inside another container and its carved contents matched PDF exploit or lure heuristics. This catches polyglots where the top-level magic routes to ZIP/OLE while a PDF reader or downstream parser opens the hidden PDF payload.
-
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.
-
XFA form low PDF_XFAPDF uses XML Forms Architecture — can contain script logic
-
PDF paints image(s) but contains no text operators info PDF_IMAGE_ONLY_LUREPDF has 2 image XObject(s) and the content stream contains no text-emitting operators (BT/ET, Tj, TJ, ', ") in either raw bytes or decompressed streams — this is the screenshot-as-PDF pattern used to bypass text-based scanners and to deliver instructions purely through rendered pixels. It is informational unless paired with invisible links or risky URI context.
