T1059.005 Visual Basic
T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution
The file contains Excel 4.0 macros, identified by multiple critical heuristics. These macros are designed to reassemble a payload and download a secondary executable from the URL 'https://beegtrading.com/doc.dll'. The reassembled payload appears to be a command to execute 'regsvr32 -s ', indicating an attempt to download and run a malicious file.
Heuristics 5
-
Excel 4.0 macro sheet (1 sheet(s)) critical 3 related findings OOXML_XLM_MACROSHEETSpreadsheet contains an Excel 4.0 (XLM) macro sheet — XLM was a major Office malware vector during 2020-2022 and evaded many VBA-focused controls before Microsoft tightened XLM defaults. Even legitimate XLM use is rare in modern workbooks. The macro sheet is stored as XLSB/BIFF12 binary content, which many XML-only OOXML scanners miss.
-
Excel 4.0 macro sheet stored under disguised package path critical OOXML_XLM_DISGUISED_RELATIONSHIPOOXML package declares an xlMacrosheet relationship whose target is outside the canonical xl/macrosheets/ path. Excel follows the relationship type, while path-only scanners can miss the macro execution surface.
-
XLM payload reassembled from CHAR()/split formulas critical OOXML_XLM_REASSEMBLED_PAYLOADAn Excel 4.0 macro sheet builds its payload inside the formula token stream by concatenating per-character CHAR() calls and string fragments, so no WinAPI name, shell command, or URL is ever contiguous in the .bin for a literal-bytes scan to find. Reassembling the formulas recovered download/execute API names, LOLBin commands (regsvr32/rundll32/mshta/wmic/powershell), or a payload URL — the de-obfuscated download-and-run kill chain.
-
XLM payload URL string (1 URL) info OOXML_XLM_PAYLOAD_URLAn Excel 4.0 (XLM) macro-sheet workbook with download/execute evidence carries a literal http(s) URL stored as a (often UTF-16) string in the shared-string table or a cell. This is the next-stage payload host referenced by the macro download chain (URLDownloadToFile/ShellExecute); surfaced as an IOC.
-
Embedded URL info EMBEDDED_URLOne 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.URL https://beegtrading.com/doc.dll Referenced by macro
