T1059.001 PowerShell
T1204.002 Malicious File
The PDF contains embedded JavaScript and a RichMedia (Flash) object, indicating an attempt to exploit vulnerabilities. The heuristics indicate eval() calls and JavaScript actions, suggesting the embedded scripts are designed to execute arbitrary code. The extracted artifacts, including a SWF file and JavaScript files, are likely components of a multi-stage attack. The primary intent appears to be the execution of a malicious payload via the embedded Flash object, facilitated by the JavaScript.
Heuristics 6
-
RichMedia (Flash) high PDF_RICHMEDIAPDF contains /RichMedia (Adobe Flash) which is a historic exploit vector
-
eval() call high PDF_EVALeval() found — commonly used for obfuscated exploit execution
-
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.
-
Embedded file low PDF_EMBEDDEDPDF embeds a file attachment — could carry an executable or another weaponised document as a nested payload
-
Suspicious extracted artifact info EXTRACTED_FILE_STATIC_TRIAGEOne or more files extracted from inside this sample matched static suspicious-content checks such as script obfuscation, encoded payload blobs, packed data, or execution/download terms.
