MITRE ATT&CK

T1059.001 PowerShell T1204.002 Malicious File

The PDF contains embedded JavaScript, identified by the 'PDF_JAVASCRIPT' and 'PDF_JS' heuristics. The 'PDF_PAGE_WORD_XOR_EVAL_STAGER' heuristic indicates that this JavaScript is designed to launch further malicious activity, likely by downloading and executing a second-stage payload. The ML classifier strongly supports the malicious nature of the file.

Heuristics 3

Page-word XOR JavaScript eval stager high PDF_PAGE_WORD_XOR_EVAL_STAGER

PDF JavaScript enumerates rendered page words with getPageNthWord/getPageNumWords, extracts encoded byte fragments, XOR-decodes the stage with char-code helpers, and evals the result. This is an old exploit-kit staging pattern and is not normal document JavaScript.
JavaScript action low PDF_JAVASCRIPT

PDF contains a /JavaScript action. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
Embedded JS stream low PDF_JS

PDF references a /JS stream. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
