MITRE ATT&CK
T1204.002 Malicious File

The sample exhibits critical heuristic firings for remote template injection and external relationships, indicating an attempt to load external content. The ClamAV detection as 'Doc.Downloader.Redline' further supports its malicious nature. The primary IOC is the suspicious URL used for these external relationships, likely serving as a download source for a secondary payload.

  • Remote template injection high OOXML_REMOTE_TEMPLATE
    Document references a remote template URL (http://00000100000000000400000000000001000000000000@3221452405/_--00_o0-0oo0-o0-o______---0-o_o0-__________o0o-__________/xgyyhjujujjdfjghjf) — a common remote-template-injection vector used by Hancitor, Emotet and many phishing campaigns. Word can fetch and apply the remote template; macros in that template may execute depending on Office policy and trust state.
  • External relationship high OOXML_EXTERNAL_REL
    External target in word/_rels/webSettings.xml.rels: http://00000100000000000400000000000001000000000000@3221452405/_--00_o0-0oo0-o0-o______---0-o_o0-__________o0o-_________
  • Embedded URL info EMBEDDED_URL
    One or more URLs were extracted from the document. The URL itself is not a detection — see the per-URL labels for which channel (macro, JS, link annotation, document body, ...) reached each URL.
