MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1059.001 PowerShell T1105 Ingress Tool Transfer

The sample is an XLSM file containing VBA macros. The macro uses CreateObject to execute a PowerShell command that downloads a second-stage executable from 'http://46.183.222.25/LVS7Kabg6OuIx3R.exe' and then executes it. This behavior is indicative of a downloader malware.

Heuristics 6

  • ClamAV: Xls.Malware.Sagent-10035294-0 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Xls.Malware.Sagent-10035294-0
  • 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.
  • CreateObject call high OLE_VBA_CREATEOBJ
    CreateObject call
  • LOLBin token sequence in document text high SE_LOLBIN_RUN_COMMAND
    Extracted document text contains a Windows script/execution tool name (PowerShell, mshta, cmd, rundll32, regsvr32, …) within 220 characters of a dangerous flag, command verb, or URL. This is a visible 'run this' instruction in HTML/PDF/RTF lure bodies, or — in macro-laden Office files — the macro's own string-pool entries appearing adjacent in extracted text.
  • VBA project inside OOXML medium OOXML_VBA
    Document contains a VBA project — VBA macros present
  • 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.
    URL http://46.183.222.25/LVS7Kabg6OuIx3R.exe
