MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1204.002 Malicious File

The file is a malicious OOXML document containing VBA macros, indicated by the 'OOXML_VBA' and 'OLE_VBA_AUTOOPEN' heuristics. The 'OLE_VBA_DOWNLOAD' heuristic and ClamAV detection ('Doc.Downloader.GreenBox5-9139204-0') strongly suggest the macro's purpose is to download and execute a second-stage payload. No specific URLs were extracted, but the presence of URLDownloadToFile is a critical indicator of this behavior.

Heuristics 6

  • URLDownloadToFile in VBA critical OLE_VBA_DOWNLOAD
    URLDownloadToFile in VBA
  • ClamAV: Doc.Downloader.GreenBox5-9139204-0 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Doc.Downloader.GreenBox5-9139204-0
  • AutoOpen macro high OLE_VBA_AUTOOPEN
    AutoOpen macro
  • Suspicious extracted artifact high 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.
  • VBA project inside OOXML medium OOXML_VBA
    Document contains vbaProject.bin — VBA macros present
  • 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.
