MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution

The RTF file contains an embedded OLE object and specifically triggers the Equation Editor CLSID heuristic, indicating exploitation of a vulnerability within it. The document body contains a lure to 'enable editing', which is a common tactic to bypass security measures and execute embedded malicious content. This suggests the file is designed to exploit a client-side vulnerability via a malicious attachment.

  • Embedded OLE object medium RTF_OBJEMB
