The spec is ISO 32000, and it’s expensive and closed, so difficult to reference. But according to Wikipedia at least, JavaScript is normative in it. No idea if SOAP / Web Services is part of it though.

The spec for PDF 1.7 is here: https://www.adobe.com/content/dam/acom/en/devnet/pdf/pdfs/PD...

JavaScript is allowed, but not in PDF/A, which is what I use.

The PDF 2.0 spec is damnably not public.

But you can't easily tell PDF/A and regular PDF apart, so we're back to the same situation as HTML vs. HTML with javascript turned off.
