MITRE ATT&CK

T1204.002 Malicious File: User Execution T1059.001 Command and Scripting Interpreter: PowerShell T1059.007 Command and Scripting Interpreter: JavaScript

The PDF file contains an XFA form that exploits CVE-2010-0188 in Adobe Reader. A deobfuscated JavaScript stager was recovered, indicating the likely intent to download and execute a second-stage payload. The ClamAV detection 'Js.Exploit.HTML-30' further supports the malicious nature of the embedded script.

Heuristics 6
