T1566.002 Spearphishing Attachment
The PDF was flagged by multiple heuristics, including ML classifiers and ClamAV, indicating malicious intent. The presence of embedded JavaScript and an embedded file strongly suggests a dropper functionality. The JavaScript stream is likely responsible for downloading and executing the embedded file, which is the secondary payload. The ML classifier output of 0.999949 further reinforces the high confidence in this assessment.
