MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1204.002 Malicious File

The sample is a malicious Word document containing VBA macros. The AutoOpen macro executes a CreateObject call to the Windows Installer service, which then attempts to download and install an MSI package from the URL 'https://filebin.net/0hcps6l97xnwswv6/OPOR.msi'. The document body attempts to lure the user into enabling macros by claiming compatibility issues with older versions of Word.

Heuristics 6

  • AutoOpen macro high OLE_VBA_AUTOOPEN
    AutoOpen macro
  • CreateObject call high OLE_VBA_CREATEOBJ
    CreateObject call
  • VBA p-code auto-exec with execution tokens high OLE_VBA_PCODE_AUTOEXEC_EXEC
    Compiled VBA/cache stream contains an auto-execution token together with shell/download/object-execution tokens. This catches p-code-only or source-extraction-failure macro documents where visible source is unavailable.
  • NOP-equivalent sled detected medium SC_NOP_EQUIV_SLED
    Long run of 0x41 bytes
  • 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.
    URL https://filebin.net/0hcps6l97xnwswv6/OPOR.msi
