MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic

The sample exhibits characteristics of a legacy macro virus, specifically identified by WordBasic macro virus markers and the presence of 'RSN MACRO VIRUS Goat file' text. The document body contains numerous embedded strings and paths, including 'KC:\MSOFFICE\WINWORD\BACKUP\This is a standard RSN MACRO VIRUS Goat file.doc', which are indicative of its nature. While no specific malicious payload is directly observable, the presence of these markers strongly suggests a macro-based threat.

    OLE Word document contains legacy WordBasic auto-execution macro markers such as AutoOpen plus ToolsMacro/MacroFile/fileMacro/globMacro or named historical macro-virus strings. These old Word 6/95 macro forms are not exposed as a modern VBA project, so normal VBA source extraction can miss them.
