T1559.001 Component Object Model
T1204.002 Malicious File
The RTF file contains multiple embedded OLE objects, with specific heuristics indicating the use of ".objupdate" and Composite Monikers. These techniques are commonly used to trigger the execution of malicious code embedded within the OLE objects when the document is opened. The file's structure strongly suggests an exploit delivery mechanism targeting OLE object activation.
Heuristics 4
-
Composite Moniker in RTF OLE object high RTF_COMPOSITE_MONIKER_RELATEDRTF contains Composite Moniker CLSID in OLE object context, but no nearby scriptlet/SCT payload was confirmed. Treat as related moniker attack-surface evidence rather than proof of CVE-2017-8570 exploitation.
-
\objupdate forces OLE activation high RTF_OBJUPDATERTF contains \objupdate — forces automatic OLE object instantiation when the document is opened, bypassing user interaction. Almost exclusively seen in Equation Editor exploit documents.
-
OLE object data medium RTF_OBJDATARTF contains 3 \objdata section(s) — embedded OLE objects
-
Embedded OLE object medium RTF_OBJEMBRTF contains \objemb — embedded OLE object
