T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution
T1059.007 JavaScript
The PDF file contains an XFA form that exploits CVE-2010-0188 in Adobe Reader. A deobfuscated JavaScript payload was recovered, which contains a URL that likely serves as a download location for a second-stage payload. The script's intent is to download and execute further malicious content from the reconstructed URL: http://stopstaringatdisabled.com/w.php?f=265d=400000.

ClamAV: Js.Exploit.HTML-30 critical CLAMAV_DETECTIONClamAV detected this file as malware: Js.Exploit.HTML-30
-
ClamAV detection on extracted artifact critical EXTRACTED_FILE_CLAMAVClamAV flagged at least one file extracted from inside this sample. Even when the wrapping document carries no AV detection of its own, a hit on the carved artifact is a strong indicator the sample is a delivery vehicle.
-
XFA numeric JavaScript stager high PDF_XFA_NUMERIC_JS_STAGERPDF XFA script reconstructs a hidden JavaScript stage from numeric field data or a character table, then evals the result. The decoder is gated on XFA script, numeric staging, and recovered exploit-like JavaScript or shellcode markers.
-
XFA form low PDF_XFAPDF uses XML Forms Architecture — can contain script logic
-
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.
-
Embedded URL info EMBEDDED_URLOne or more URLs were extracted from the document. The URL itself is not a detection — see the per-URL labels for which channel (macro, JS, link annotation, document body, ...) reached each URL.URL http://www.xfa.org/schema/xfa-template/2.5/
