MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.001 PowerShell T1566.002 Spearphishing Attachment

The PDF file contains embedded JavaScript, indicated by the PDF_JAVASCRIPT and PDF_JS heuristics. The ClamAV detection for Heuristics.PDF.ObfuscatedNameObject further supports its malicious nature. The embedded JavaScript stream, javascript_obj0012_000.js, is likely responsible for executing malicious actions, such as downloading a second-stage payload from the known malicious URL http://www.bitstream.com. The document body is heavily obfuscated and does not provide clear user-facing content.
