Malware Insights
The RTF document contains OLE object data and is configured to automatically update and activate these objects, indicating an attempt to exploit OLE vulnerabilities. The presence of RTF_OBJDATA, RTF_OBJAUTLINK, and RTF_OBJUPDATE heuristics strongly suggests that the document is designed to embed and execute malicious code via OLE objects. The document body is heavily obfuscated and does not provide clear textual clues about its intent, but the heuristics point towards a malicious OLE activation. No scripts were extracted from this sample.
Heuristics 3
-
Automatically linked OLE object high RTF_OBJAUTLINKRTF contains \objautlink — an automatically linked OLE object surface that can be updated or activated when Word opens the document.
-
\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 2 \objdata section(s) — embedded OLE objects
