katana.units.pdf.pdfinfo — pdfinfo

PDFInfo

This unit checks the PDF information of a given target, using the pdfinfo command-line tool. You can optionally pass in arguments, user_password and owner_password to use with the utility. The syntax is:

pdfinfo <target_path> -upw <user_password> -opw <owner_password>

The unit inherits from katana.unit.FileUnit to ensure the target is a PDF file.

class katana.units.pdf.pdfinfo.Unit(*args, **kwargs)

Bases: katana.unit.FileUnit

BLOCKED_GROUPS = ['pdf']

PDFs shouldn’t come out of this. So no reason to look.

DEPENDENCIES = ['pdfinfo']

Required depenencies for this unit “pdfinfo”

GROUPS = ['pdf']

These are “tags” for a unit. Considering it is a pdf unit, “pdf” is included.

PRIORITY = 60

Priority works with 0 being the highest priority, and 100 being the lowest priority. 50 is the default priorty. This unit has a priority of 60.

RECURSE_SELF = False

Again no PDF from this. So recursion is silly.

evaluate(case: Any) → None

Evaluate the target. Run pdfinfo on the target and recurse on any new found information.

Parameters:case – A case returned by enumerate. For this unit, the enumerate function is not used. Returns:None. This function should not return any data.
