medium PDF_SIGNATURE_BYTERANGE_EVASION

What it means

A signature's ByteRange starts past byte 0, leaving content uncovered.

A legitimate PDF signature covers from byte 0. A ByteRange that starts past the file head leaves real content outside the signed region while still presenting as 'signed' — the Universal Signature Forgery evasion.
