MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic
T1204.002 Malicious File
The file is a malicious DOC document containing VBA macros, as indicated by the OLE_VBA_MACROS and OLE_VBA_DOCOPEN heuristics. ClamAV detections (Doc.Trojan.Xaler-1) on both the main file and an extracted artifact (macros.bas) confirm its malicious nature. The presence of VBA Chr string obfuscation in the extracted macro suggests it is likely a downloader for a second-stage payload. The document body text is in Kazakh and Russian and discusses economic indicators, which appears to be a lure.
Heuristics 5
-
ClamAV: Doc.Trojan.Xaler-1 critical CLAMAV_DETECTIONClamAV detected this file as malware: Doc.Trojan.Xaler-1
-
ClamAV detection on extracted artifact critical EXTRACTED_FILE_CLAMAVClamAV flagged at least one file extracted from inside this sample. Even when the wrapping document carries no AV detection of its own, a hit on the carved artifact is a strong indicator the sample is a delivery vehicle.
-
Document_Open macro high OLE_VBA_DOCOPENDocument_Open macro
-
Suspicious extracted artifact high EXTRACTED_FILE_STATIC_TRIAGEOne 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.
-
VBA macros detected medium OLE_VBA_MACROSDocument contains VBA macro code
