Malware Insights
The PDF document contains XFA (XML Forms Architecture) which is known to be a vector for exploits. Specifically, the 'PDF_XFA_HEAP_SPRAY' and 'PDF_XFA_SCRIPT' heuristics indicate the presence of heap spray exploit code and risky executable script within the XFA form. The embedded JavaScript, 'stream_000_off0000186d.js', likely contains the malicious payload. The reconstructed URL from the document body, 'http://oz9n7q.ru:8585/icon_wink.php?promos=4&ratings=151&docs=765', is highly suspicious and is likely the destination for the downloaded payload.
Heuristics 6
-
XFA form contains risky executable script high PDF_XFA_SCRIPTPDF embeds an XFA form whose script block contains exploit, submission/launch, or shell-execution primitives. Ordinary LiveCycle print/update scripts are left as generic XFA/JS signals unless stronger behavior is present.
-
XFA JavaScript heap-spray exploit code critical PDF_XFA_HEAP_SPRAYPDF contains XFA script content with heap-spray or shellcode-like JavaScript markers such as large encoded word sequences, util.pack, large arrays, or spray variable names. This is a weaponised Adobe Reader exploit pattern, not a normal interactive form.
-
Embedded script payload in PDF stream medium PDF_EMBEDDED_SCRIPT_PAYLOADPDF stream bytes contain an HTML/XFA <script> tag without accompanying Windows shell-execution primitives — common in accessible XFA forms but worth surfacing for analyst review.
-
XFA form low PDF_XFAPDF uses XML Forms Architecture — can contain script logic
-
String.fromCharCode low PDF_FROMCHARCODEString.fromCharCode found — used to construct payload strings dynamically. Common in benign JavaScript libraries for codepoint manipulation, so this alone is informational; weaponised use is also caught by the dedicated fromCharCode-stage and exploit-shape rules. (matched inside decoded stream)
-
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.
