MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution

The sample is identified as malicious by ClamAV and exhibits characteristics of CVE-2026-21514 exploitation due to an embedded OLE object containing executable or script indicators. The embedded OLE package further suggests the presence of a malicious link or executable. Although the document body is truncated, the presence of shellcode command strings and the overall structure indicate an attempt to download and execute a second-stage payload, likely via JavaScript.

Heuristics 5

  • ClamAV: Win.Phishing.Suspicious-6355520-3 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Win.Phishing.Suspicious-6355520-3
  • Ole10Native package carries executable/script file type high OFFICE_PACKAGE_RISKY_FILE
    OLE Package displayName or fullPath ends in an executable or script-capable extension. Even without UI extension spoofing, embedding a runnable payload inside an Office document is a high-risk delivery pattern.
  • Suspicious extracted artifact high EXTRACTED_FILE_STATIC_TRIAGE
    One or more files extracted from inside this sample matched static suspicious-content checks such as script obfuscation, encoded payload blobs, packed data, or execution/download terms.
  • 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.
