The PDF file contains embedded JavaScript that leverages CVE-2009-0927 and CVE-2008-2992 vulnerabilities. The 'eval()' function is used on obfuscated JavaScript streams, indicating an attempt to execute malicious code. The presence of multiple JavaScript-related heuristics and ClamAV detection strongly suggests this PDF is designed to exploit the reader and likely download further malicious content.
Heuristics 8
-
Collab.getIcon — CVE-2009-0927 critical CVE exact CVE_2009_0927PDF JavaScript calls Collab.getIcon — CVE-2009-0927 is a stack buffer overflow in Adobe Reader triggered by Collab.getIcon() with a crafted argument. Allows arbitrary code execution. (identified after JavaScript deobfuscation)
-
util.printf — CVE-2008-2992 critical CVE exact CVE_2008_2992PDF JavaScript calls util.printf() — CVE-2008-2992 is a stack buffer overflow in Adobe Reader triggered by a long format-specifier argument. Widely exploited in the wild after disclosure. (identified after JavaScript deobfuscation)
-
ClamAV: Pdf.Exploit.Agent-12288 critical CLAMAV_DETECTIONClamAV detected this file as malware: Pdf.Exploit.Agent-12288
-
OpenAction trigger high PDF_OPENACTIONPDF has an /OpenAction — code runs automatically when opened
-
eval() call high PDF_EVALeval() found — commonly used for obfuscated exploit execution (matched inside decoded stream)
-
JavaScript action low PDF_JAVASCRIPTPDF contains a /JavaScript action. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
-
Embedded JS stream low PDF_JSPDF references a /JS stream. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
-
Suspicious extracted artifact info EXTRACTED_FILE_STATIC_TRIAGEOne or more files extracted from inside this sample matched static suspicious-content checks such as script obfuscation, encoded payload blobs, packed data, or execution/download terms.
