Abstract(in English) As one of the countermeasures against malware, various dynamic analysis systems have been proposed, which perform their analyses by monitoring behavior of targeted malware. Usually, recent document malware employed by Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) exploit vulnerabilities of applications. Therefore, it is difficult to precisely analyze a malware if the analysis environment does not have adequate vulnerabilities that are targeted by the malware. However once an exploitation succeeded, an environment-independent shellcode is executed by the malware, which can be executed on any kinds of analysis environment. Based on this premise, this paper proposes an environment-independent document malware analysis system. The system finds out a start position of a shellcode embedded in a document malware and then generates a Portable Executable (PE) file which begins from the found start position of the shellcode in the original file. The generated executable is executed in the environment without steps of the vulnerability exploitation.
