T1059.001 PowerShell
T1204.002 Malicious File
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment
The PDF file contains multiple JavaScript streams and an embedded file, indicating malicious intent. High-confidence heuristics like 'PDF_EVAL' and 'CLAMAV_DETECTION' with the signature 'Pdf.Exploit.Agent-35955' strongly suggest exploitation. The embedded JavaScript is likely responsible for downloading and executing a second-stage payload, as indicated by the presence of multiple JS streams and an embedded binary file.
Heuristics 9
-
ClamAV: Pdf.Exploit.Agent-35955 critical CLAMAV_DETECTIONClamAV detected this file as malware: Pdf.Exploit.Agent-35955
-
ClamAV detection on extracted artifact critical EXTRACTED_FILE_CLAMAVClamAV 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_RICHMEDIAPDF contains /RichMedia (Adobe Flash) which is a historic exploit vector
-
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.
-
Embedded file low PDF_EMBEDDEDPDF embeds a file attachment — could carry an executable or another weaponised document as a nested payload
-
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://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#
