T1204.002 Malicious File: Malicious File
The PDF contains embedded JavaScript, indicated by multiple heuristic firings including PDF_JAVASCRIPT and PDF_JS. The ML classifier strongly flags this PDF as malicious. The presence of unescape() suggests obfuscation of the JavaScript payload. The primary intent appears to be the execution of this embedded script, likely to download and execute a second-stage payload.
