Malware Insights

The OLE document exhibits a significant slack space anomaly, indicating it may be a container for malicious code. Heuristic firings related to VirtualProtect, LoadLibrary, and GetProcAddress APIs suggest the presence of shellcode designed to dynamically load and execute code. No document body or script content was available for further analysis.

  • Reference to LoadLibrary API high SC_STR_LOADLIBRARY
    Reference to LoadLibrary API
  • Reference to GetProcAddress API high SC_STR_GETPROCADDRESS
    Reference to GetProcAddress API
  • OLE document has large unaccounted-for region high OLE_SLACK_ANOMALY
    OLE file is 63,904 bytes but its declared streams total only 21,151 bytes — 42,753 bytes (67%) live in unallocated sector slack. This is the canonical hiding place for pre-macro-era Office exploit payloads (XOR-encoded shellcode reached via a parser pointer-corruption bug in the document structure).
