MITRE ATT&CK

T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution

The RTF file contains OLE object data that leverages CVE-2017-0199 or CVE-2017-8759 to load a remote resource. The embedded URL, http://kinesk.com/t/t.php?stats=send&thread=1, is used to download a secondary payload. Metasploit reverse shellcode and references to WinExec, VirtualAlloc, LoadLibrary, and GetProcAddress APIs indicate the execution of malicious code.

Heuristics 11

CVE-2017-0199 / CVE-2017-8759 (OLE2Link auto-activated remote loader) critical CVE related RTF_OLE2LINK_REMOTE_MONIKER_LOADER

RTF embeds an OLE2Link object that is force-activated with \objupdate (no user interaction on open) and fetches a remote second stage through an INCLUDETEXT/INCLUDEPICTURE field. This is the field-delivered OLE2Link auto-update attack path shared by CVE-2017-0199 (server returns an HTA/scriptlet) and CVE-2017-8759 (server returns a SOAP WSDL the .NET parser compiles). Office processes the fetched response through the same code path; the specific CVE depends on the now-unreachable server content type.

\objupdate forces OLE activation high RTF_OBJUPDATE

RTF contains \objupdate — forces automatic OLE object instantiation when the document is opened, bypassing user interaction. Almost exclusively seen in Equation Editor exploit documents.
INCLUDETEXT/INCLUDEPICTURE remote URL high RTF_INCLUDE_REMOTE

RTF document uses INCLUDETEXT or INCLUDEPICTURE with an http:// URL — Word can fetch the remote content on open depending on Office version and external-content settings, enabling remote template injection, NTLM capture via redirects, or payload delivery

OLE object data medium RTF_OBJDATA

RTF contains 2 \objdata section(s) — embedded OLE objects
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.
