MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1059.001 PowerShell

The file contains VBA macros, and a critical heuristic indicates the use of the Shell() function, suggesting an attempt to execute arbitrary commands. The presence of 'macros.bas' and ClamAV detections further support malicious intent. The document body is a generic template and does not provide specific lures.

Heuristics 5

  • Shell() call in VBA critical OLE_VBA_SHELL
    Shell() call in VBA
  • ClamAV: Doc.Trojan.Marker-31 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Doc.Trojan.Marker-31
  • 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.
  • Suspicious extracted artifact high 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.
  • VBA macros detected medium OLE_VBA_MACROS
    Document contains VBA macro code
