MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The OOXML document contains heuristics indicating remote template injection and external relationships, pointing to the URL https://www.forecareer.com/gdcareer/officetemplate-20nab.asp?iqxml=480012756ad26f72e412db0ae7aa183e. The document body presents a job advertisement with a high salary to entice the user to visit this external resource, likely to download a malicious payload.

Heuristics 3

  • Remote template injection high OOXML_REMOTE_TEMPLATE
    Document references a remote template URL (https://www.forecareer.com/gdcareer/officetemplate-20nab.asp?iqxml=480012756ad26f72e412db0ae7aa183e) — 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: https://www.forecareer.com/gdcareer/officetemplate-20nab.asp?iqxml=480012756ad26f72e412db0ae7aa183e
  • 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.
