MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1204.002 Malicious File T1059 Command and Scripting Interpreter

The sample is a Microsoft Office document containing VBA macros. The critical heuristic 'OLE_VBA_SHELL' and 'OLE_VBA_PCODE_AUTOEXEC_EXEC' indicate the presence of a 'Document_Open' macro that uses the Shell() function to execute a file. The script explicitly calls Shell('\jdq\cc$\b.exe'), indicating it attempts to download and execute a second-stage payload. The ClamAV detection further confirms its malicious nature.

Heuristics 5

  • ClamAV: Doc.Macro.DeleteMacro-6096859-0 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Doc.Macro.DeleteMacro-6096859-0
  • VBA macros detected medium 3 related findings OLE_VBA_MACROS
    Document contains VBA macro code
  • Shell() call in VBA critical OLE_VBA_SHELL
    Shell() call in VBA
  • Document_Open macro high OLE_VBA_DOCOPEN
    Document_Open macro
  • VBA p-code auto-exec with execution tokens high OLE_VBA_PCODE_AUTOEXEC_EXEC
    Compiled VBA/cache stream contains an auto-execution token together with shell/download/object-execution tokens. This catches p-code-only or source-extraction-failure macro documents where visible source is unavailable.
