MITRE ATT&CK

T1566.001 Phishing: Spearphishing Attachment T1204.002 Malicious File Execution: Malicious JavaScript

The PDF document contains embedded JavaScript, indicated by multiple heuristic firings including PDF_JAVASCRIPT and PDF_JS. The ML classifier strongly flags this PDF as malicious. The embedded JavaScript, named 'javascript_obj0008_000.js', is the primary mechanism for executing malicious code, likely to download and run a secondary payload.

Machine Learning

Nyx PDF Classifier malicious score 1.0000

Heuristics 5

ASCIIHexDecode filter (with exploit indicators) medium PDF_FILTER_HEX

Hex-encoding filter present alongside exploit delivery indicators — often used to hide payload or shellcode bytes
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. (matched inside decoded stream)
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.

Extracted artifacts 1
