MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1059.001 PowerShell T1204.002 Malicious File

The file is a malicious OOXML document containing VBA macros, specifically an AutoOpen macro, which is a common technique for initial execution. The presence of CreateObject calls suggests the macro attempts to interact with the system or download additional content. ClamAV identified this as a downloader, indicating its primary purpose is to fetch and execute further malicious code. The extracted artifacts 'macros.bas' and 'vbaProject_00.bin' are direct indicators of the malicious macro content.

  • AutoOpen macro high OLE_VBA_AUTOOPEN
    AutoOpen macro
  • CreateObject call high OLE_VBA_CREATEOBJ
