MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1547.001 Registry Run Keys / Startup Folder

The sample is a malicious Office document containing a VBA macro. The macro is triggered by the Document_Open event and attempts to modify the Normal.dot template. This technique is often used to establish persistence or to ensure the macro runs every time a new document is created. The specific intent of the macro is to overwrite the Normal.dot template with its own code, which is a common persistence mechanism.

Heuristics 5

  • ClamAV: Doc.Trojan.Strings-1 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Doc.Trojan.Strings-1
  • ClamAV detection on extracted artifact critical EXTRACTED_FILE_CLAMAV
    ClamAV flagged at least one file extracted from inside this sample. Even when the wrapping document carries no AV detection of its own, a hit on the carved artifact is a strong indicator the sample is a delivery vehicle.
  • Document_Open macro high OLE_VBA_DOCOPEN
    Document_Open macro
  • VBA macros detected medium OLE_VBA_MACROS
    Document contains VBA macro code
  • 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.
