MITRE ATT&CK
T1204 Malicious Link T1059 Command and Scripting Interpreter

The sample utilizes OOXML_REMOTE_TEMPLATE and OOXML_EXTERNAL_REL heuristics, indicating an attempt to load external content from 'http://counsel69.boskat.ru/1-ПК/courageous/courageous.69alf'. This external resource is likely a malicious payload. The document also contains external hyperlinks, potentially for further social engineering or credential harvesting.

Heuristics 4

  • Remote template injection high OOXML_REMOTE_TEMPLATE
    Document references a remote template URL (http://counsel69.boskatrem.ru/1-ПК/courageous/courageous.69alf) — a common remote-template-injection vector used by Hancitor, Emotet and many phishing campaigns. Word can fetch and apply the remote template; macros in that template may execute depending on Office policy and trust state.
  • External relationship medium OOXML_EXTERNAL_REL
    External target in word/_rels/settings.xml.rels: http://counsel69.boskatrem.ru/1-ПК/courageous/courageous.69alf
  • External hyperlinks (2) low OOXML_EXTERNAL_HYPERLINKS
    Document contains 2 external hyperlinks — clickable URLs are stored as external relationships. First target: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1VahWOluAhwChQxRhts3-FqY8sTBI61T5b7h7u56vsNs/edit
  • 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.
