PDF_PRC_HEADER_INVALID — PRC stream missing 'PRC' magic

high PDF_PRC_HEADER_INVALID

What it means

PRC stream does not begin with the ASCII bytes 'PRC' at offset 0.

Why it fires

Adobe's Product Representation Compact format begins with the 'PRC' magic. A missing or wrong magic on a closed-format parser surface that is rarely exercised is an interesting unknown-exploit signal — fewer eyes have looked at PRC parsing than at any of the open 3D formats.
