The file is an RTF document containing OLE object data and an \objupdate directive, which forces OLE activation. This suggests the document is designed to exploit vulnerabilities or deliver malicious content through embedded objects. No document body text or scripts were available for further analysis, limiting the ability to determine the specific payload or delivery mechanism. The heuristics strongly indicate a malicious RTF file designed to leverage OLE object activation.

Heuristics 2

  • \objupdate forces OLE activation high RTF_OBJUPDATE
    RTF contains \objupdate — forces automatic OLE object instantiation when the document is opened, bypassing user interaction. Almost exclusively seen in Equation Editor exploit documents.
  • OLE object data medium RTF_OBJDATA
    RTF contains 1 \objdata section(s) — embedded OLE objects
