MITRE ATT&CK

T1059.001 PowerShell T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1204.002 Malicious File

The PDF contains embedded JavaScript, indicated by multiple heuristic firings including 'PDF_JAVASCRIPT', 'PDF_JS', and 'PDF_UNESCAPE'. The ML classifier also flagged this PDF as malicious with high confidence. The extracted JavaScript files, 'javascript_obj0020_000.js' and 'javascript_obj0020_001.js', are likely responsible for executing malicious actions, such as downloading and executing a second-stage payload. The obfuscation present in these scripts, noted by the 'EXTRACTED_FILE_STATIC_TRIAGE' heuristic, further supports malicious intent.

Heuristics 4

unescape() call high PDF_UNESCAPE

unescape() found — often used to decode shellcode in PDF JS exploits
Suspicious extracted artifact medium 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.
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.
