The RTF document contains OLE object data and an ".objupdate" directive, indicating it is designed to activate embedded objects, a common technique for malware delivery. The document body provides a lengthy, fabricated explanation of financial auditing to trick the user into enabling editing and macros, as suggested by the SE_ENABLE_LURE heuristic. This suggests the file is a downloader or dropper for a second-stage payload.
Heuristics 3
-
\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.
-
OLE object data medium RTF_OBJDATARTF contains 1 \objdata section(s) — embedded OLE objects
-
Macro/content-enable lure medium SE_ENABLE_LUREDocument instructs the user to enable macros or editing — a common technique used by malware droppers to bypass Office macro security settings
