T1059.001 PowerShell
T1204.002 Malicious JavaScript
The PDF file contains embedded JavaScript, indicated by the PDF_JAVASCRIPT and PDF_JS heuristics. The PDF_EVAL and PDF_FROMCHARCODE firings suggest that the JavaScript is obfuscated and uses eval() and String.fromCharCode() to execute code. The CLAMAV_DETECTION heuristic identifies this as Pdf.Exploit.Agent-36086. The extracted artifact javascript_obj0006_000.js is likely the payload. The overall attack pattern is consistent with a malicious PDF designed to exploit vulnerabilities and download further malicious content.
Heuristics 6
-
ClamAV: Pdf.Exploit.Agent-36086 critical CLAMAV_DETECTIONClamAV detected this file as malware: Pdf.Exploit.Agent-36086
-
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.
-
String.fromCharCode low PDF_FROMCHARCODEString.fromCharCode found — used to construct payload strings dynamically. Common in benign JavaScript libraries for codepoint manipulation, so this alone is informational; weaponised use is also caught by the dedicated fromCharCode-stage and exploit-shape rules. (matched inside decoded stream)
-
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.
