QuickSand.io - Tool For Scanning Streams Within Office Documents Plus Xor DB Attack



QuickSand is a compact C framework to analyze suspected malware documents to 1) identify exploits in streams of different encodings, 2) locate and extract embedded executables. By having the ability to locate embedded obfuscated executables, QuickSand could detect documents that contain zero-day or unknown obfuscated exploits.
