Hacking PDF by Didier Stevens
PDF exploits and malicious PDF documents have been on the radar for several years now. But do you know how to detect them? And how they are constructed?
This training will teach you how to analyze PDF files and create your own PDF hacks. PDF files that execute code, but also PDF documents to embed, obfuscate and hide all types of content. Didier Stevens will teach you how to use his Python tools to analyze PDF documents and to create your own PDF documents from scratch. With a bit of knowledge of the Python programming language, Didier Stevens will teach you how to use his PDF Python module to create all sorts of “interesting” PDF files. And for good measure, we also throw in a bit of shellcode programming. Didier Stevens will reveal you shellcode he specially designed for PDF files. This shellcode has never been released publicly.
This is not a training on exploit development, but we will see with several exercises how exploits need to be packaged in PDF files. We focus on the PDF language, not on reversing PDF readers.
Attendees will receive a personal license to Didier Stevens Labs’ “PDF Workshop” videos and a Teensy USB development board.
