Malware Insights
The PDF sample contains multiple embedded JavaScript streams and triggers a critical heuristic for the CVE-2010-2883 Adobe Reader CoolType SING font exploit. The presence of JavaScript and the exploit indicate the document is designed to execute malicious code. The embedded JavaScript files are likely responsible for downloading and executing a secondary payload, contributing to the overall malicious intent of the document.
Heuristics 8
-
Adobe Reader CoolType SING font exploit — CVE-2010-2883 critical CVE likely CVE_2010_2883PDF embeds a TrueType/OpenType font with an actual SING table and pairs it with JavaScript heap-spray shellcode. This matches the public Adobe Reader CoolType SING exploit shape for CVE-2010-2883.
-
RichMedia (Flash) high PDF_RICHMEDIAPDF contains /RichMedia (Adobe Flash) which is a historic exploit vector
-
ASCIIHexDecode filter (with exploit indicators) medium PDF_FILTER_HEXHex-encoding filter present alongside exploit delivery indicators — often used to hide payload or shellcode bytes
-
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.
-
Embedded file low PDF_EMBEDDEDPDF embeds a file attachment — could carry an executable or another weaponised document as a nested payload
-
XFA form low PDF_XFAPDF uses XML Forms Architecture — can contain script logic
-
