MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1204.002 Malicious File T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The sample contains VBA macros that execute upon opening the document. The `Document_Open` subroutine calls `RunMainProcess`, which attempts to download and save two files, 'ssr.txt' and 'F260402.txt', from the URLs `https://timely-puffpuff-dc7879.netlify.app/ssr.txt` and `https://timely-puffpuff-dc7879.netlify.app/tusop.txt` respectively, into the `C:\ProgramData\` directory. The presence of `ShellExecute` and `cmd.exe` calls indicates an attempt to execute downloaded payloads, likely leading to further malicious activity.

    Suspicious cmd.exe invocation with execution flag
  • Reference to Windows Script Host high SC_STR_WSCRIPT

  • VBA macros detected medium OLE_VBA_MACROS
    Document contains VBA macro code
  • 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.
