Malicious javascript seeks to bypass security controls. It’s one of the reasons NoScript is a thing. It could be a malware loaded from an ad. Biggest reason for adblockers imo.
Check out this link for learning about this stuff.

I've read that article. It is complete garbage and doesn't explain anything at all. It's just standard cookie cutter fear mongering to sell some random antivirus software.
That article is for lay-persons and really an awareness article I surmise. If you’re technical you are likely already aware of the security concerns with jacascript.
