Heuristics 9

  • Adobe Reader JBIG2Decode generic heap-spray exploit critical CVE likely CVE_2009_0658_GENERIC_SPRAY
    PDF combines JBIG2Decode image streams with JavaScript heap-spray or decoder scaffolding. This is likely CVE-2009-0658-family Adobe Reader JBIG2 exploitation, but it lacks the stricter Reader-9 version gate or decoded page-word shellcode fingerprint required by the exact rule.
  • JBIG2 + active content high CVE related PDF_JBIG2_ACTIVE_CONTENT
    JBIG2Decode appears with JavaScript/XFA/RichMedia — a related indicator for JBIG2 parser-exploit families including CVE-2021-30860 and CVE-2009-0658, but not a unique CVE fingerprint.
  • PDF JavaScript exploit cluster critical PDF_JS_EXPLOIT_CLUSTER
    PDF combines an executable JavaScript/action surface with exploit staging indicators such as eval/unescape/fromCharCode, XFA script content, or a related CVE pattern. Benign form JavaScript remains low-severity, but this correlated cluster is high-confidence malicious behavior.
  • unescape() call high PDF_UNESCAPE
    unescape() found — often used to decode shellcode in PDF JS exploits (matched inside decoded stream)
  • JBIG2Decode filter medium PDF_JBIG2
    JBIG2 image decoder present — historically used in zero-click exploits
  • ASCIIHexDecode filter (with exploit indicators) medium PDF_FILTER_HEX
    Hex-encoding filter present alongside exploit delivery indicators — often used to hide payload or shellcode bytes
  • JavaScript action low 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.
  • Suspicious extracted artifact info EXTRACTED_FILE_STATIC_TRIAGE
    One 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.
