The PDF file contains embedded JavaScript, indicated by multiple heuristic firings including PDF_JAVASCRIPT and PDF_JS. The critical ClamAV detection for 'Heuristics.PDF.ObfuscatedNameObject' and the presence of an extracted JavaScript file ('javascript_obj0006_000.js') strongly suggest malicious intent. The JavaScript action, combined with obfuscation indicators, points towards the execution of a malicious script, likely to download and execute a second-stage payload.
Heuristics 7
-
JBIG2 + active content high PDF_JBIG2_ACTIVE_CONTENTJBIG2Decode appears with JavaScript/XFA/RichMedia — a related indicator for JBIG2 parser-exploit families including CVE-2021-30860 and CVE-2009-0658, but not a unique CVE fingerprint.
