CYFIRMA Research- RENDERSHOCK- Weaponizing Trust in File Rendering Pipelines
Update: 2025-07-15
Description
New Threat Model: Zero-Click Compromise via File Rendering Automation
RenderShock introduces a powerful new attack framework that leverages trusted file previewing, indexing, and sync mechanisms to trigger payloads — without exploits, macros, or even opening the file.
Key Highlights:
- Zero-click execution using passive system features.
- Payloads delivered via LNKs, polyglots, CHMs, EXIF beacons, and remote Office templates.
- Targets Windows/macOS preview handlers, indexing engines, and cloud sync daemons.
- Demonstrates execution chains without user interaction or CVE exploitation.
- Includes MITRE mapping, detection guidance, and red team-ready payload chains.
