The sample is a malicious Office document containing VBA macros. The AutoOpen macro attempts to export its own code to 'c:\bdoc2.txt' and then import it into either the Normal template or the active document, indicating an attempt to establish persistence or facilitate further execution. The AutoClose macro contains obfuscated strings and a conditional message box, suggesting further malicious activity. The ClamAV detection 'Doc.Trojan.CrazyMan-1' further supports the malicious nature.

Heuristics 5

  • ClamAV: Doc.Trojan.CrazyMan-1 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Doc.Trojan.CrazyMan-1
  • VBA macros detected medium 2 related findings OLE_VBA_MACROS
    Document contains VBA macro code
  • AutoOpen macro high OLE_VBA_AUTOOPEN
    AutoOpen macro
  • Auto_Close macro high OLE_VBA_AUTOCLOSE
    Auto_Close macro
  • Legacy WordBasic auto-exec macro marker medium OLE_LEGACY_WORDBASIC_AUTOEXEC
    OLE Word document contains a legacy WordBasic auto-execution marker such as AutoOpen, but no modern VBA project was recovered and no stronger macro-virus family marker was present. This is analyst-facing evidence for old Word macro execution surface, not a downloader or parser-CVE attribution by itself.
