MITRE ATT&CK
T1055 Process Injection T1204.002 Malicious File

The sample is a malicious OLE document that exhibits characteristics of process injection. It references critical Windows APIs such as WriteProcessMemory, CreateRemoteThread, LoadLibrary, and GetProcAddress, indicating an attempt to inject code into another process. The large slack space anomaly in the OLE structure further suggests obfuscation or embedded malicious content. No document body or script content was available for further analysis.

  • OLE document has large unaccounted-for region high OLE_SLACK_ANOMALY
    OLE file is 89,602 bytes but its declared streams total only 21,151 bytes — 68,451 bytes (76%) live in unallocated sector slack. This is the canonical hiding place for pre-macro-era Office exploit payloads (XOR-encoded shellcode reached via a parser pointer-corruption bug in the document structure).
