MITRE ATT&CK

T1059.005 Visual Basic T1059.003 Windows Command Shell T1204.002 Malicious File

This OOXML document contains VBA macros, indicated by the OOXML_VBA heuristic. The Document_Open macro is present and utilizes WScript.Shell and CreateObject to execute arbitrary commands. Specifically, the script attempts to download and execute a payload from the URL "http://visteme.mxc/shop/wp-admin/P". The ClamAV detection further confirms the malicious nature of the file.

Heuristics 9

Shell() call in VBA critical OLE_VBA_SHELL

Shell() call in VBA
WScript.Shell usage critical OLE_VBA_WSCRIPT

WScript.Shell usage
ClamAV: Doc.Malware.Valyria-10033907-0 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION

ClamAV detected this file as malware: Doc.Malware.Valyria-10033907-0
ClamAV detection on extracted artifact critical EXTRACTED_FILE_CLAMAV

ClamAV 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_DOCOPEN

Document_Open macro
CreateObject call high OLE_VBA_CREATEOBJ

CreateObject call
Suspicious extracted artifact high 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.
VBA project inside OOXML medium OOXML_VBA

Document contains vbaProject.bin — VBA macros 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.
