MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.001 PowerShell T1204.002 Malicious File

The PDF contains embedded JavaScript, identified by heuristics as a 'Page-word XOR JavaScript eval stager'. This stager is designed to execute arbitrary code, strongly suggesting it acts as a downloader for further malicious content. The ClamAV detection of 'Pdf.Dropper.Agent-7325550-0' further confirms its malicious dropper functionality.

  • Page-word XOR JavaScript eval stager high PDF_PAGE_WORD_XOR_EVAL_STAGER
    PDF JavaScript enumerates rendered page words with getPageNthWord/getPageNumWords, extracts encoded byte fragments, XOR-decodes the stage with char-code helpers, and evals the result. This is an old exploit-kit staging pattern and is not normal document JavaScript.
