Malware Insights
The RTF document contains embedded OLE object data, indicated by the RTF_OBJDATA heuristic. The RTF_OBJUPDATE heuristic suggests that this object is designed to be activated automatically, which is a common technique for exploiting vulnerabilities in applications like Microsoft Office. The embedded OLE object data itself, objdata_00_off0000170a.bin, is the primary artifact of interest. While no scripts were extracted, the presence of OLE object data strongly implies an attempt to leverage an exploit or deliver a malicious payload upon opening.
Heuristics 2
-
\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.
-
