MITRE ATT&CK

T1204.002 Malicious File T1059.007 JavaScript

This PDF file contains embedded JavaScript and a Flash object, and triggers a critical vulnerability (CVE-2011-2462) related to RichMedia and U3D parsing in Adobe Reader. The embedded JavaScript streams and the Flash object, identified as suspicious artifacts, are likely responsible for downloading and executing a secondary payload. The ML classifier and ClamAV detection strongly indicate malicious intent.

Heuristics 10

Adobe Reader U3D/RichMedia parser exploit critical CVE likely CVE_2011_2462_RICHMEDIA_U3D

PDF combines U3D stream markers with RichMedia and JavaScript/XFA activation surfaces. This is the U3D RichMedia exploit document shape associated with CVE-2011-2462, even though the U3D marker is not exposed through the canonical /Subtype /U3D dictionary.
ClamAV: Pdf.Exploit.Agent-35955 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION

ClamAV detected this file as malware: Pdf.Exploit.Agent-35955
ClamAV detection on extracted artifact critical EXTRACTED_FILE_CLAMAV

ClamAV flagged at least one file extracted from inside this sample. Even when the wrapping document carries no AV detection of its own, a hit on the carved artifact is a strong indicator the sample is a delivery vehicle.
RichMedia (Flash) high PDF_RICHMEDIA

PDF contains /RichMedia (Adobe Flash) which is a historic exploit vector
eval() call high PDF_EVAL

eval() found — commonly used for obfuscated exploit execution (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.
Embedded file low PDF_EMBEDDED

PDF embeds a file attachment — could carry an executable or another weaponised document as a nested payload
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.
