MITRE ATT&CK

T1059.001 PowerShell T1059.007 JavaScript

The PDF contains embedded JavaScript, flagged by multiple heuristics including PDF_JAVASCRIPT, PDF_JS, and PDF_EVAL. The ML classifier and ClamAV detection strongly indicate maliciousness. The embedded JavaScript file, 'javascript_obj0076_000.js', is highly suspicious and likely responsible for downloading and executing a second-stage payload, as suggested by the 'ML_NYX_PDF_MALICIOUS' and 'CLAMAV_DETECTION' firings. The obfuscated nature of the script, indicated by 'PDF_FROMCHARCODE' and 'PDF_EVAL', further supports this assessment.

Nyx PDF Classifier malicious score 1.0000

Heuristics 6

ClamAV: Pdf.Exploit.Dropped-94 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION

ClamAV detected this file as malware: Pdf.Exploit.Dropped-94
eval() call high PDF_EVAL

eval() found — commonly used for obfuscated exploit execution (matched inside decoded stream)
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.
String.fromCharCode low PDF_FROMCHARCODE

String.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.
Suspicious extracted artifact info EXTRACTED_FILE_STATIC_TRIAGE

One 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.
