T1059.001 PowerShell
The PDF file contains embedded JavaScript, indicated by the PDF_JAVASCRIPT and PDF_JS heuristics. The PDF_UNESCAPE heuristic and the 'Hex escape obfuscation' signal in EXTRACTED_FILE_STATIC_TRIAGE suggest the JavaScript is heavily obfuscated. This obfuscated script, named 'javascript_obj0022_000.js', is likely designed to download and execute a malicious payload. The presence of JavaScript actions and embedded JS streams points towards a delivery mechanism for further malicious activity.
Heuristics 4
-
unescape() call high PDF_UNESCAPEunescape() found — often used to decode shellcode in PDF JS exploits (matched inside decoded stream)
-
Suspicious extracted artifact medium 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.
-
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.
