MITRE ATT&CK

T1059.001 PowerShell T1027 Obfuscated Files or Information

The PDF file contains embedded JavaScript, indicated by the PDF_JAVASCRIPT and PDF_JS heuristics. The presence of PDF_EVAL and PDF_UNESCAPE rules strongly suggests that the JavaScript code is obfuscated and uses eval() to execute it. This obfuscated script, named 'javascript_obj0013_001.js', is likely responsible for downloading and executing a secondary payload, a common technique for malware delivery. The confidence is slightly reduced due to the inability to reconstruct the exact payload URL or execution command from the provided evidence.

Heuristics 5

eval() call high PDF_EVAL

eval() found — commonly used for obfuscated exploit execution (matched inside decoded stream)
unescape() call high PDF_UNESCAPE

unescape() found — often used to decode shellcode in PDF JS exploits (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.
