T1204.001 Malicious Link
The PDF sample contains embedded JavaScript that utilizes eval() and unescape() functions, indicative of obfuscated code execution. The critical CVE-2009-0927 heuristic firing points to the use of the Collab.getIcon method, a known exploit vector for older Adobe Reader versions. The script's primary function appears to be the execution of further stages, likely involving the download of additional malicious content.
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.
-
