The sample is a PowerPoint file identified as malicious by ClamAV (Win.Worm.Kido-217). It contains an embedded PE executable, indicating an attempt to deliver a secondary payload. Heuristics indicate the use of APIs like VirtualAlloc, VirtualProtect, LoadLibrary, and GetProcAddress, commonly used by malware to load and execute code. The embedded executable is the primary IOC.

Heuristics 8

  • Embedded PE executable critical OLE_EMBEDDED_EXE
    MZ/PE header found inside document — possible embedded executable
  • ClamAV: Win.Worm.Kido-217 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Win.Worm.Kido-217
  • ClamAV detection on extracted artifact critical EXTRACTED_FILE_CLAMAV
    ClamAV flagged at least one file extracted from inside this sample. Even when the wrapping document carries no AV detection of its own, a hit on the carved artifact is a strong indicator the sample is a delivery vehicle.
  • Reference to LoadLibrary API high SC_STR_LOADLIBRARY
    Reference to LoadLibrary API
  • Reference to GetProcAddress API high SC_STR_GETPROCADDRESS
    Reference to GetProcAddress API
  • Reference to VirtualAlloc API medium SC_STR_VIRTUALALLOC
    Reference to VirtualAlloc API
  • Reference to VirtualProtect API medium SC_STR_VIRTUALPROTECT
    Reference to VirtualProtect API
  • Suspicious extracted artifact info EXTRACTED_FILE_STATIC_TRIAGE
    One or more files extracted from inside this sample matched static suspicious-content checks such as script obfuscation, encoded payload blobs, packed data, or execution/download terms.
