MITRE ATT&CK

T1059.001 PowerShell T1204.002 Malicious JavaScript

The PDF file contains embedded JavaScript, indicated by the PDF_JAVASCRIPT and PDF_JS heuristics. ClamAV detections (Win.Trojan.Agent-36166) confirm its malicious nature. The embedded JavaScript is likely responsible for downloading and executing a second-stage payload, although the exact functionality is obscured. The SHA256 hash is provided as a primary IOC.

Heuristics 4
