MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic

The sample contains legacy WordBasic macro virus markers, specifically 'ToolsMacro', indicating a malicious intent to spread. The presence of 'DefeatAV' and 'Stealth' keywords suggests attempts to evade detection. The macro code appears to be designed to infect other documents, as indicated by 'del all macro in \do normal.dot'.

    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Win.Trojan.CVCK1-1
  • Legacy WordBasic macro-virus markers high OLE_LEGACY_WORDBASIC_MACRO_VIRUS
    OLE Word document contains legacy WordBasic auto-execution macro markers such as AutoOpen plus ToolsMacro/MacroFile/fileMacro/globMacro or named historical macro-virus strings. These old Word 6/95 macro forms are not exposed as a modern VBA project, so normal VBA source extraction can miss them.
