MITRE ATT&CK
T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution

The sample is an RTF document that contains an embedded OLE object. Static analysis identified a critical heuristic firing for CVE-2017-11882, indicating the exploitation of a known vulnerability in Microsoft Equation Editor. This vulnerability allows for arbitrary code execution when the document is opened.

Heuristics 3

  • CVE-2017-11882 — Equation Editor FONT record overflow critical CVE likely CVE_2017_11882
    Equation Editor MTEF contains an overlong FONT typeface field, the vulnerable copy primitive for CVE-2017-11882. This is stronger evidence than the Equation Editor CLSID alone because it identifies the malformed record that drives code execution in EQNEDT32.EXE.
  • OLE object data medium RTF_OBJDATA
    RTF contains 1 \objdata section(s) — embedded OLE objects
  • Embedded OLE object medium RTF_OBJEMB
    RTF contains \objemb — embedded OLE object
