MITRE ATT&CK

T1059.001 PowerShell

The PDF file contains embedded JavaScript, flagged by multiple heuristics as malicious. The JavaScript stream, named 'javascript_obj0011_000.js', is likely responsible for executing the malicious payload. The ML classifier strongly indicates maliciousness, and the presence of JavaScript actions and stagers points to a code execution attack pattern.

Heuristics 3

Page-word XOR JavaScript eval stager high PDF_PAGE_WORD_XOR_EVAL_STAGER

PDF JavaScript enumerates rendered page words with getPageNthWord/getPageNumWords, extracts encoded byte fragments, XOR-decodes the stage with char-code helpers, and evals the result. This is an old exploit-kit staging pattern and is not normal document JavaScript.
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.
