  1. Thanks for trying to share this PDF document. Unfortunately,
    the link to the hackin9.org site is down. 404 errors.

  5. I consult for a company that gets targeted by these malicious pdfs a lot. I downloaded your pdf tools and they are awesome. I noticed in one of the infected pdf files that there are references to http://www.pdf-repair.com as the “creator” and the “producer”. That software is supposedly used to fix corrupted pdf files. Would they be using that to make it easier to craft their exploited pdf files?? Thanks for your input.

  6. It could just be that they used pdf-repair because their PDF got corrupted…
