MITRE ATT&CK
T1059 Command and Scripting Interpreter

The critical heuristic 'OLE_XLS_FORMULA_MACRO_VIRUS' indicates this is a legacy Excel macro virus, specifically identified as 'XF.Classic' and 'Poppy by VicodinES'. The document body contains embedded text referencing 'An Excel Formula Macro Virus (XF.Classic)' and 'Hydrocodone/APAP 10-650 For Your Computer', along with code snippets like 'Add New Workbook, Infect It, Save It As .xls'. This strongly suggests the file's purpose is to infect other Excel workbooks. The presence of multiple URLs associated with the same domain indicates potential command and control or payload distribution infrastructure.

Heuristics 2

  • Legacy Excel formula macro virus marker critical OLE_XLS_FORMULA_MACRO_VIRUS
    Workbook stream contains self-identifying legacy Excel formula macro virus markers. This indicates the document carries formula macro virus content even when no VBA project or modern XLM macro-sheet structure is present.
  • 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.
