MITRE ATT&CK
T1204 Malicious Link T1059 Command and Scripting Interpreter

The sample leverages external OLE objects and MSHTML-based vulnerabilities (CVE-2017-0199 and CVE-2022-30190) to fetch and execute a remote HTML payload from a suspicious URL. This indicates a likely initial access vector for a multi-stage attack, aiming to compromise the user's system.

Heuristics 6

  • CVE-2022-30190 — Follina stage-1 external HTML oleObject critical CVE likely CVE_2022_30190
    External OLEObject relationship targets a remote .html with the Follina delivery shape (oleObject -> HTTP(S) HTML with trailing Moniker '!'). In live Follina samples the ms-msdt: trigger is served by the remote HTML, not the document itself.
  • MSHTML-style external object relationship critical CVE related OFFICE_MSHTML_EXTERNAL_OBJECT
    External relationship to https://polymorphous-exampl.000webhostapp.com/thatsahaayeeohnewithderRewchungswe — exploitable MSHTML/CAB/MHTML/HTA-style Office attack surface
  • OOXML OLE2Link remote loader — CVE-2017-0199 related high CVE related CVE_2017_0199_RELATED
    Document contains an o:OLEObject Type=Link whose external oleObject relationship points to a remote URL. This is the OOXML OLE2Link activation shape associated with CVE-2017-0199 delivery, but the local file does not expose URL Moniker bytes or a weaponized extension/content type, so the exact CVE cannot be proven statically.
  • External OLE object relationship high OOXML_EXTERNAL_OLE_OBJECT
    Document contains an oleObject relationship whose target is an external HTTP(S) URL. Office resolves this through OLE/object update paths rather than as a normal user-clicked hyperlink.
  • Embedded OLE object medium OOXML_OLE_OBJECT
    Document contains an embedded OLE object
  • 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.
