MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.001 JavaScript
T1204.002 Malicious File
The PDF file contains embedded JavaScript and a U3D (3D content) stream, which is flagged as a CVE-related indicator. The presence of JavaScript, particularly in a deobfuscated form, suggests an attempt to execute malicious code. The U3D content is likely used to trigger an exploit. The primary attack vector appears to be leveraging a vulnerability within the PDF reader's handling of 3D content to achieve code execution.
Heuristics 5
-
U3D/3D content in PDF — Adobe Reader 3D parser CVE-family indicator high PDF_U3D_CVE_RELATEDPDF contains U3D (Universal 3D) or 3D annotation content — CVE-2011-2462 and CVE-2009-3953 are critical vulnerabilities in Adobe Reader's U3D processing that allow arbitrary code execution. U3D content in PDFs is extremely rare in normal documents.
-
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.
-
syncAnnotScan annotation-staging primitive low PDF_FOXIT_SYNCANNOTSCANPDF JavaScript calls syncAnnotScan() — a no-op annotation-enumeration primitive used by exploit-kit JavaScript to stage payload reads from annotation /Subject fields before eval(). Not a vulnerable sink itself; rarely seen in legitimate PDFs. (matched in decompressed stream)
