MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The sample utilizes external relationships to a free TLD, indicating an attempt to inject remote content. ClamAV detection as 'Doc.Downloader.Redline' further supports its malicious nature. The primary IOC is the URL used for remote template injection, which likely serves as a download source for a secondary payload.

Heuristics 5

  • ClamAV: Doc.Downloader.Redline-9972754-0 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Doc.Downloader.Redline-9972754-0
  • OOXML external relationship targets a free/throwaway TLD high OOXML_EXTERNAL_REL_FREE_TLD
    Document has an external relationship whose target host is on a free, no-registration TLD (Freenom .ml/.ga/.cf/.gq/.tk). Legitimate business documents do not link out to a Freenom throwaway domain; these are a near-zero-FP phishing / BEC delivery tell (e.g. an RFQ/invoice lure pointing at 'shareddocuments.ml/RFQ'). The relationship may be a hyperlink, a remote template, or an external OLE object.
  • Remote template injection high OOXML_REMOTE_TEMPLATE
    Document references a remote template URL (http://tunjihost.ga/doc/sologee.doc) — a common remote-template-injection vector used by Hancitor, Emotet and many phishing campaigns. Word can fetch and apply the remote template; macros in that template may execute depending on Office policy and trust state.
  • External relationship high OOXML_EXTERNAL_REL
    External target in word/_rels/webSettings.xml.rels: http://tunjihost.ga/doc/sologee.doc
  • 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.
