T1059.001 PowerShell
The PDF file exhibits multiple heuristic firings related to JavaScript, including embedded JS streams and the use of String.fromCharCode for obfuscation. ClamAV identifies this as 'Pdf.Dropper.Agent-7685821-0', indicating a dropper functionality. The presence of obfuscated JavaScript suggests an attempt to download and execute a second-stage payload, which is a common characteristic of droppers.
Heuristics 5
-
ClamAV: Pdf.Dropper.Agent-7685821-0 critical CLAMAV_DETECTIONClamAV detected this file as malware: Pdf.Dropper.Agent-7685821-0
-
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.
-
String.fromCharCode low PDF_FROMCHARCODEString.fromCharCode found — used to construct payload strings dynamically. Common in benign JavaScript libraries for codepoint manipulation, so this alone is informational; weaponised use is also caught by the dedicated fromCharCode-stage and exploit-shape rules. (matched inside decoded stream)
-
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.
