MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.002 Spearphishing Attachment
T1204.002 Malicious File
The file is an encrypted OOXML document identified as a malicious exploit carrier. It contains embedded OLE objects, specifically triggering the Equation Editor heuristic, which is a common vector for exploiting vulnerabilities. The default encryption suggests an attempt to obscure the malicious content. No specific scripts or URLs were extracted, limiting further analysis of the payload.
Heuristics 3
-
Equation Editor OLE object high OLE_EQUATION_EDITORDefault-encrypted OOXML embedded OLE object xl/embeddings/oleObject1.bin contains the Equation Editor CLSID, the legacy component exploited by CVE-2017-11882, CVE-2018-0802, and CVE-2018-0798.
-
Default-encrypted OOXML exploit carrier layout high OOXML_ENCRYPTED_EXPLOIT_CARRIER_SHAPEDefault-password encrypted OOXML package contains embedded OLE object parts and additional activation/decoy parts. This layout is common in malicious Excel exploit delivery and requires inspecting the decrypted package.
-
Office OOXML encrypted with default VelvetSweatshop password medium OFFICE_DEFAULT_PASSWORD_ENCRYPTED_OOXMLOLE EncryptedPackage decrypts with Excel's built-in VelvetSweatshop password. Office opens this transparently, and malware uses it to hide OOXML exploit parts from scanners that only inspect the outer OLE container.
