MITRE ATT&CK

T1059.001 JavaScript/Script Execution T1204.002 Malicious File: User Execution

The PDF file contains embedded JavaScript, indicated by multiple heuristic firings including PDF_JAVASCRIPT and PDF_JS. The presence of U3D content and a PDF_UNESCAPE call suggests an attempt to exploit vulnerabilities, specifically related to Adobe Reader's 3D parsing (CVE-family indicator). The ClamAV detection 'Heuristics.PDF.ObfuscatedNameObject' further supports a malicious classification. The embedded JavaScript files, 'javascript_obj0001_000.js' and 'javascript_obj0002_001.js', are likely responsible for executing the malicious payload.

Heuristics 6

U3D/3D content in PDF — Adobe Reader 3D parser CVE-family indicator high CVE related PDF_U3D_CVE_RELATED

PDF 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.
ClamAV: Heuristics.PDF.ObfuscatedNameObject critical CLAMAV_DETECTION

ClamAV detected this file as malware: Heuristics.PDF.ObfuscatedNameObject
unescape() call high PDF_UNESCAPE

unescape() found — often used to decode shellcode in PDF JS exploits (matched inside decoded stream)
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.
