MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1204.002 Malicious File T1608.001 Stage 1: Transfer

The sample is a malicious Office document containing VBA macros, indicated by multiple OLE_VBA_ heuristics and a critical ClamAV detection. The AutoOpen macro uses VirtualAlloc and CreateThread API calls, suggesting it attempts to allocate memory and execute code, likely to download and run a second-stage payload. The presence of the `schemas.openxmlformats.org/drawingml/2006/main` URL, though benign, is noted as an embedded URL.

Heuristics 8

  • ClamAV: Doc.Downloader.Generic-6698421-0 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Doc.Downloader.Generic-6698421-0
  • Reference to VirtualAlloc API medium SC_STR_VIRTUALALLOC
    Reference to VirtualAlloc API
  • 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.

    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.
