What it means

RTF text contains PHP IRC bot source code.

Why it fires

The detector looks for a compound source-code pattern: PHP markers, socket connection calls, IRC protocol commands such as JOIN or PRIVMSG, and bot-control strings. The RTF is not necessarily an Office exploit, but it is carrying operational malware source code and should not be treated as a clean document.
