T1059.001 PowerShell
T1204.002 Malicious File
The PDF file contains embedded JavaScript, indicated by multiple heuristic firings including PDF_JAVASCRIPT, PDF_JS, and PDF_EVAL. The embedded JavaScript stream, named 'javascript_obj0027_000.js', is likely responsible for executing malicious code. The PDF_LAUNCH heuristic also suggests an attempt to execute an external file. The obfuscated nature of the JavaScript and the presence of a launch action point towards a downloader or dropper functionality, aiming to fetch and execute further malicious content.
Heuristics 5
-
Launch action high PDF_LAUNCHPDF contains a /Launch action with an unresolved or extension-less target — treat as potentially dangerous
-
eval() call high PDF_EVALeval() found — commonly used for obfuscated exploit execution (matched inside decoded stream)
-
JavaScript action low PDF_JAVASCRIPTPDF contains a /JavaScript action. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
-
Embedded JS stream low PDF_JSPDF references a /JS stream. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
-
