MITRE ATT&CK

T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution T1566.001 Phishing: Spearphishing Attachment

The sample is a Microsoft Word document that exploits CVE-2007-3899, a memory corruption vulnerability, to execute arbitrary code. It contains an embedded PE executable, identified as 'embedded_office_0000546f.exe', which is dropped and likely executed by the exploit. The document's content is a resume, suggesting a lure for spearphishing.

Heuristics 12

CVE-2007-3899 — Microsoft Word malformed string memory corruption critical CVE likely CVE_2007_3899

Word OLE document has the MS07-060 malformed-string exploit shape: a Word 97-family FIB points to a malformed DOP/string-table region with an abnormal INT_MAX run, inflated text counters, and exploit payload or Mdropper.Z campaign evidence.
OLE with Ole10Native — possible CVE-2026-21514 exploitation high CVE likely CVE_2026_21514

Document contains a Word OLE object with Ole10Native plus executable, PE, or risky remote-link indicators. CVE-2026-21514 exploits OLE metadata validation; this stronger structure is treated as likely exploitation.
ClamAV: Doc.Dropper.Agent-6519263-0 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION

ClamAV detected this file as malware: Doc.Dropper.Agent-6519263-0
Embedded PE executable critical OLE_EMBEDDED_EXE

MZ/PE header found inside document — possible embedded executable
Ole10Native package drops an auto-executable payload critical OFFICE_PACKAGE_RISKY_FILE

OLE Package displayName or fullPath ends in a directly auto-executable extension (a runnable binary or a script the default shell host runs on double-click). Embedding such a payload inside an Office document has no benign authoring use — it is a malware-delivery dropper.

Suspicious extracted artifact info EXTRACTED_FILE_STATIC_TRIAGE

One or more files extracted from inside this sample matched static suspicious-content checks such as script obfuscation, encoded payload blobs, packed data, or execution/download terms.
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.
