Here\u2019s how it is achieved:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>PDF and EXE Header Manipulation<\/strong>:<br>The gap between the EXE header (up to byte 0x1B) and the PE header offset (at byte 0x3C) is utilized to insert a PDF signature (<code>%PDF-1.x<\/code>) and a stream object declaration. \n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>This allows the file to be identified as a valid PDF while hiding the Doom executable content.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Appending PDF Content<\/strong>:<br>The body of the EXE\/PE contains the Doom executable, while the end of the file includes additional PDF structures, such as closing the stream object and appending the rest of the Doom.PDF content.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Rebuilding PDF Metadata<\/strong>:<br>To ensure compatibility with Chrome\u2019s PDF engine, an updated cross-reference (XREF) table and <code>startxref<\/code> pointer are added, along with adjustments to the trailer\u2019s <code>\/Size<\/code> property.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>The resulting file can function as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>A playable <em>Doom<\/em> game when executed as an EXE or PE.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A readable PDF document when opened in Chromium-based browsers (with limited functionality).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The PDF payload only works under Chrome due to its limited implementation of JavaScript in PDFs. Additionally, performance constraints arise from rendering Doom in grayscale ASCII characters within a text field-based framebuffer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This project showcases the potential of polyglot files in creative programming, security research, and file format exploration. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While primarily experimental, it highlights vulnerabilities in interpreting multi-format files, emphasizing the need for robust validation mechanisms<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more details or to explore this project, refer to Allen Ading\u2019s GitHub repository for Doom.PDF.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Doom-Poly is a fascinating polyglot executable that combines the functionality of a PDF, DOS executable, and Windows PE executable to run the classic game Doom.
