MITRE ATT&CK
T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution T1059 Command and Scripting Interpreter

The sample exhibits critical heuristic firings related to process injection (WriteProcessMemory, CreateRemoteThread) and code execution (WinExec, CreateProcess, LoadLibrary, GetProcAddress), strongly suggesting it attempts to download and execute a secondary payload. The presence of embedded URLs further supports this, indicating a likely dropper or exploit delivery mechanism. The ClamAV detection as 'Doc.Dropper.Agent-7119450-0' reinforces the assessment of its malicious function.

  • OLE document has large unaccounted-for region high OLE_SLACK_ANOMALY
    OLE file is 115,714 bytes but its declared streams total only 21,151 bytes — 94,563 bytes (82%) 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).

  • 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.
