MITRE ATT&CK

T1059.001 PowerShell

The PDF contains embedded JavaScript, indicated by multiple heuristic firings including PDF_JAVASCRIPT, PDF_JS, and PDF_UNESCAPE. The ML classifier also flagged it as malicious with high confidence. The extracted artifacts, javascript_obj0020_000.js and javascript_obj0020_001.js, suggest obfuscated JavaScript code. This code is likely responsible for downloading and executing a second-stage payload, a common technique for malware delivery.

Heuristics 4

unescape() call high PDF_UNESCAPE

unescape() found — often used to decode shellcode in PDF JS exploits
Suspicious extracted artifact medium EXTRACTED_FILE_STATIC_TRIAGE

One 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.
JavaScript action low PDF_JAVASCRIPT

PDF contains a /JavaScript action. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
Embedded JS stream low PDF_JS

PDF references a /JS stream. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
