The PDF file contains embedded JavaScript that utilizes the 'eval()' function and the CVE-2009-0927 exploit (Collab.getIcon). This exploit is designed to execute arbitrary JavaScript within Adobe Reader. The obfuscated JavaScript streams suggest an attempt to download and execute a secondary payload, a common technique for initial access.
Heuristics 5
-
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)
-
eval() call high PDF_EVALeval() found — commonly used for obfuscated exploit execution
-
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.
