MITRE ATT&CK
T1559.001 Component Object Model Hijacking: Component Object Model Hijacking

The sample is a malicious OLE document containing an embedded PE executable. The heuristic 'OLE_EMBEDDED_EXE' indicates a high likelihood of a malicious payload being present. The document body's instruction to 'Apri l'immagine sotto con un doppio-click' (Open the image below with a double-click) combined with the 'EMBED Package' suggests the user is being tricked into executing the embedded file. The embedded executable is the primary IOC.

Heuristics 4

  • OLE with Ole10Native — possible CVE-2026-21514 exploitation high CVE likely CVE_2026_21514
    Document contains a Word OLE object with Ole10Native plus executable, PE, or risky remote-link indicators. CVE-2026-21514 exploits OLE metadata validation; this stronger structure is treated as likely exploitation.
  • Embedded PE executable critical OLE_EMBEDDED_EXE
    MZ/PE header found inside document — possible embedded executable
  • Suspicious extracted artifact info EXTRACTED_FILE_STATIC_TRIAGE
    One or more files extracted from inside this sample matched static suspicious-content checks such as script obfuscation, encoded payload blobs, packed data, or execution/download terms.
  • 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.
