MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.001 PowerShell
T1204.002 Malicious File
The sample is an OLE document containing an embedded PE executable. Heuristics indicate the use of API hashing and dynamic loading of functions like CreateProcess and ShellExecute, common in malware. The document body contains garbled text, suggesting it's not intended for direct user interaction but rather to mask the malicious payload. The primary attack vector is the embedded executable, which is likely a second-stage downloader or payload.
Heuristics 9
-
Embedded PE executable critical OLE_EMBEDDED_EXEMZ/PE header found inside document — possible embedded executable
-
PEB access via FS segment (x86) high SC_PEB_ACCESSPEB access via FS segment (x86)
-
PEB API-hash resolver high SC_API_HASH_RESOLVERPEB access followed by ROR13-style API hashing, a common position-independent shellcode import resolver
-
Reference to CreateProcess API high SC_STR_CREATEPROCESSReference to CreateProcess API
-
Reference to ShellExecute API high SC_STR_SHELLEXECReference to ShellExecute API
-
