AB - In this study, we perform static analysis on Hangul document-type malware files, including the extraction of scripts and shellcode, and carry out dynamic analysis based on the type of malware to identify characteristics of Hangul document-type malware files. Based on these characteristics, we learn information about Hangul document-type malware files and develop a deep learning-based detection model for them. Decoding streams in HWP files typically generate readable text composed mainly of JavaScript. We have proposed an effective document-based malware detection model using a transformer model that leverages an attention mechanism to capture dependencies between input and output. In this research, we differentiated Hangul-type malware provided by antivirus companies by document components (streams) and, after training on 17,265 instances, achieved an accuracy of over 96%.
