Malware Insights
The PDF file contains embedded JavaScript, identified by PDF_JAVASCRIPT and PDF_JS heuristics. The ClamAV detection 'Win.Trojan.Agent-36169' strongly suggests malicious intent. The deobfuscated JavaScript, legacy_pdfkit_stage_000.js, appears to be designed to download and execute a second-stage payload, as indicated by the heuristic firings and the nature of such embedded scripts in malicious PDFs. The DOC BODY content is highly obfuscated and does not provide clear user-facing text, but the presence of JavaScript and the ClamAV signature are sufficient indicators of malicious activity.
Heuristics 5
-
ClamAV: Win.Trojan.Agent-36169 critical CLAMAV_DETECTIONClamAV detected this file as malware: Win.Trojan.Agent-36169
-
ClamAV detection on extracted artifact critical EXTRACTED_FILE_CLAMAVClamAV flagged at least one file extracted from inside this sample. Even when the wrapping document carries no AV detection of its own, a hit on the carved artifact is a strong indicator the sample is a delivery vehicle.
-
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.
-
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.
