T1059.001 PowerShell
T1204.002 Malicious File
The PDF file contains embedded scripts and XFA forms, which are flagged as risky and executable. The 'PDF_EVAL' and 'PDF_XFA_SCRIPT' heuristics indicate that the document is designed to execute code. ClamAV detection 'Pdf.Exploit.Dropped-81' confirms its malicious nature, likely involving the execution of an embedded payload.
Heuristics 8
-
XFA form contains risky executable script high PDF_XFA_SCRIPTPDF embeds an XFA form whose script block contains exploit, submission/launch, or shell-execution primitives. Ordinary LiveCycle print/update scripts are left as generic XFA/JS signals unless stronger behavior is present.
-
ClamAV: Pdf.Exploit.Dropped-81 critical CLAMAV_DETECTIONClamAV detected this file as malware: Pdf.Exploit.Dropped-81
-
eval() call high PDF_EVALeval() found — commonly used for obfuscated exploit execution
-
Embedded script payload in PDF stream medium PDF_EMBEDDED_SCRIPT_PAYLOADPDF stream bytes contain an HTML/XFA <script> tag without accompanying Windows shell-execution primitives — common in accessible XFA forms but worth surfacing for analyst review.
-
Embedded file low PDF_EMBEDDEDPDF embeds a file attachment — could carry an executable or another weaponised document as a nested payload
-
XFA form low PDF_XFAPDF uses XML Forms Architecture — can contain script logic
-
Suspicious extracted artifact info EXTRACTED_FILE_STATIC_TRIAGEOne 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_URLOne 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.URL http://ns.adobe.com/xdp/
