T1059.001 PowerShell
This PDF file was flagged as malicious by an ML classifier and contains embedded JavaScript. Heuristics indicate the presence of JavaScript actions and an eval() call, suggesting the execution of obfuscated code. The embedded JavaScript streams, particularly javascript_obj0012_000.js, are likely responsible for downloading and executing a second-stage payload, which is a common technique for malware delivery.
