The Document_Open VBA macro is designed to execute malicious code upon opening the document. It constructs a PowerShell command that downloads a second-stage executable from 'https://mailer34.zzux.com/a/leApp14.exe' and saves it as 'C:\Users\Public\Documents\littlelittle.exe'. The macro also attempts to establish persistence by writing to the registry key 'HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\IAccessible2Proxy'.

Heuristics 5

  • Document_Open macro high OLE_VBA_DOCOPEN
    Document_Open macro
  • GetObject call high OLE_VBA_GETOBJ
    GetObject call
  • VBA p-code auto-exec with execution tokens high OLE_VBA_PCODE_AUTOEXEC_EXEC
    Compiled VBA/cache stream contains an auto-execution token together with shell/download/object-execution tokens. This catches p-code-only or source-extraction-failure macro documents where visible source is unavailable.
  • VBA macros detected medium OLE_VBA_MACROS
    Document contains VBA macro code
  • 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.
