MITRE ATT&CK
T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution
The RTF file contains multiple indicators of exploitation, specifically related to the Equation Editor vulnerability (CVE-2017-11882). The presence of OLE object data, excessive hex-encoded data, and a composite moniker strongly suggest that the file is designed to trigger code execution. ClamAV also explicitly detects this as Rtf.Exploit.CVE_2017_11882-6584355-1, confirming the exploit attempt.
Heuristics 7
-
Composite Moniker in RTF OLE object high RTF_COMPOSITE_MONIKER_RELATEDRTF contains Composite Moniker CLSID in OLE object context, but no nearby scriptlet/SCT payload was confirmed. Treat as related moniker attack-surface evidence rather than proof of CVE-2017-8570 exploitation.
-
Equation Editor CLSID critical RTF_EQUATION_EDITOREquation Editor OLE CLSID found inside an OLE object — exploited by CVE-2017-11882 / CVE-2018-0802 / CVE-2018-0798

ClamAV: Rtf.Exploit.CVE_2017_11882-6584355-1 critical CLAMAV_DETECTIONClamAV detected this file as malware: Rtf.Exploit.CVE_2017_11882-6584355-1
-
\objupdate forces OLE activation high RTF_OBJUPDATERTF contains \objupdate — forces automatic OLE object instantiation when the document is opened, bypassing user interaction. Almost exclusively seen in Equation Editor exploit documents.
-
Large hex data blocks in OLE object high RTF_EXCESSIVE_HEXRTF contains ~3716KB of hex-encoded data inside \objdata sections — may hide a payload
-
OLE object data medium RTF_OBJDATARTF contains 2 \objdata section(s) — embedded OLE objects
-
