MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The sample is a legacy Word document containing a WordBasic macro triggered by the AutoOpen subroutine. This macro is indicative of older malware designed to execute malicious code upon document opening. ClamAV detection as Win.Trojan.W-285 further confirms its malicious nature, suggesting it likely downloads and executes a secondary payload.

Heuristics 2

  • ClamAV: Win.Trojan.W-285 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Win.Trojan.W-285
  • 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.
