T1027 Obfuscated Files or Information
The sample exhibits characteristics of malicious obfuscation techniques, specifically XOR-encoded strings with a key of 0x92 and a significant amount of slack space within the OLE structure. While a benign URL was extracted, these indicators point towards a deliberately hidden payload. No scripts were extracted, limiting further analysis of the specific malicious functionality.
Heuristics 3
-
XOR-encoded strings (key 0x92) critical SC_XOR_ENCODEDFound 2 Windows library/API name(s) XOR-encoded with single-byte key 0x92: 'advapi32.dll', 'shell32.dll'
-
OLE document has large unaccounted-for region high OLE_SLACK_ANOMALYOLE file is 109,056 bytes but its declared streams total only 12,812 bytes — 96,244 bytes (88%) live in unallocated sector slack. This is the canonical hiding place for pre-macro-era Office exploit payloads (XOR-encoded shellcode reached via a parser pointer-corruption bug in the document structure).
-
Embedded URL info EMBEDDED_URLOne 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.URL http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/drawingml/2006/main
