MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic

The sample contains a legacy WordBasic macro triggered by the AutoOpen event, which is a known indicator of malicious documents. The macro attempts to embed and execute a file named KERNEL.EXE, likely a second-stage payload. The presence of legacy WordBasic macros and the embedded executable strongly suggest a malicious intent, although the specific family cannot be determined.

Heuristics 2

  • ClamAV: Win.Trojan.ENFK1-1 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Win.Trojan.ENFK1-1
  • 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.
