Malware Insights

The file is a malicious OLE document with a significant slack space anomaly, indicating hidden or packed content. ClamAV identifies it as 'Doc.Dropper.Agent-1828508', strongly suggesting its purpose is to act as a dropper for other malware. The presence of VirtualAlloc API reference further supports the likelihood of dynamic code execution. No specific family could be identified, and no document body or script content was available for further analysis.

Heuristics 3

  • ClamAV: Doc.Dropper.Agent-1828508 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Doc.Dropper.Agent-1828508
  • OLE document has large unaccounted-for region high OLE_SLACK_ANOMALY
    OLE file is 73,632 bytes but its declared streams total only 21,151 bytes — 52,481 bytes (71%) 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).
