T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment
The PDF file contains embedded JavaScript and an embedded file named 'Kt.doc'. The JavaScript action is configured to export the embedded data object, which is the 'Kt.doc' file. This suggests the PDF is a lure to trick the user into opening a malicious document, likely for further exploitation. The ML classifier strongly indicates malicious intent.

- Nyx PDF Classifier malicious score 1.0000
Heuristics 5
-
JavaScript action low 2 related findings PDF_JAVASCRIPTPDF contains a /JavaScript action. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
-
exportDataObject + nLaunch — embedded-file launch-on-open dropper critical PDF_JS_EXPORT_LAUNCH_DROPPERPDF JavaScript calls exportDataObject() with nLaunch set, which extracts the document's embedded file and launches it in its default application. This is a launch-on-open dropper: the embedded file is the payload. No benign workflow auto-launches an extracted PDF attachment.
-
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
-
