T1204 Malicious Link
T1204.001 Malicious Link: Malicious JavaScript
T1204.002 Malicious Link: Malicious File
The PDF file exploits CVE-2010-0188, a vulnerability in Adobe Reader related to XFA forms. A JavaScript payload was extracted from a decompressed stream within the PDF. This payload is likely designed to download and execute a second-stage malicious artifact, contributing to the overall malicious nature of the document.
Heuristics 5
-
Adobe Reader LibTIFF XFA image exploit — CVE-2010-0188 critical CVE likely CVE_2010_0188PDF contains the CVE-2010-0188 exploit template: XFA JavaScript heap-spray setup, a generated TIFF image payload, and assignment of that TIFF data to an XFA image field rawValue to trigger Adobe Reader's LibTIFF parser.
-
Embedded script payload in PDF stream medium PDF_EMBEDDED_SCRIPT_PAYLOADPDF stream bytes contain an HTML/XFA <script> tag without accompanying Windows shell-execution primitives — common in accessible XFA forms but worth surfacing for analyst review.
-
Embedded file low PDF_EMBEDDEDPDF embeds a file attachment — could carry an executable or another weaponised document as a nested payload
-
XFA form low PDF_XFAPDF uses XML Forms Architecture — can contain script logic
-
