MITRE ATT&CK
T1204.002 Malicious File

The file is a malicious Office document that uses remote template injection to download and likely execute a secondary payload. The ClamAV detection 'Doc.Downloader.Gamaredon-9966166-1' suggests a downloader functionality. The primary IOC is the URL used for the remote template injection.

Heuristics 4

  • ClamAV: Doc.Downloader.Gamaredon-9966166-1 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Doc.Downloader.Gamaredon-9966166-1
  • Remote template injection high OOXML_REMOTE_TEMPLATE
    Document references a remote template URL (http://lump.semara.ru/DCH00-01/counter/nearest/needle.dot) — a common remote-template-injection vector used by Hancitor, Emotet and many phishing campaigns. Word can fetch and apply the remote template; macros in that template may execute depending on Office policy and trust state.
  • External relationship medium OOXML_EXTERNAL_REL
    External target in word/_rels/settings.xml.rels: http://lump.semara.ru/DCH00-01/counter/nearest/needle.dot
  • Embedded URL info EMBEDDED_URL
    One or more URLs were extracted from the document. The URL itself is not a detection — see the per-URL labels for which channel (macro, JS, link annotation, document body, ...) reached each URL.
