MITRE ATT&CK

T1059.001 PowerShell T1204.002 Malicious File

The PDF file was flagged by multiple heuristics, including a critical ClamAV detection for 'Win.Trojan.Agent-36166'. The presence of embedded JavaScript, indicated by PDF_JAVASCRIPT and PDF_JS firings, suggests the script is responsible for executing the malicious payload. The ML classifier also strongly indicated maliciousness. The exact behavior of the JavaScript could not be determined due to its obfuscation, but the overall pattern points to a downloader or dropper.
