Malware Insights
The RTF document contains multiple high-severity heuristics indicating the presence and activation of OLE objects. Specifically, RTF_OBJAUTLINK and RTF_OBJUPDATE suggest that the embedded OLE object is automatically linked and updated, which is a common technique for executing embedded malicious code. The RTF_OLE10NATIVE_STREAM heuristic further confirms the presence of a decoded OLE object. While no specific script was extracted, these heuristics strongly suggest that the file is designed to exploit OLE object vulnerabilities to download and execute a secondary payload.
Heuristics 4
-
Ole10Native stream in RTF OLE object high RTF_OLE10NATIVE_STREAMRTF contains an embedded OLE object with an Ole10Native stream. This is a strong payload-container signal and is related to Word/OLE exploit delivery, but it is not specific enough on its own to assign a CVE.
-
Automatically linked OLE object high RTF_OBJAUTLINKRTF contains \objautlink — an automatically linked OLE object surface that can be updated or activated when Word opens the document.
-
\objupdate forces OLE activation high RTF_OBJUPDATERTF 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_OBJDATARTF contains 2 \objdata section(s) — embedded OLE objects
