T1566.001 Phishing: Spearphishing Attachment
The RTF document contains embedded OLE objects with excessive hex-encoded data, a common technique for hiding malicious payloads. The document body explicitly instructs the user to 'Enable editing' and mentions financial statements, acting as a lure. The presence of OLE object data and the enable editing lure strongly suggest the document is designed to download and execute a secondary payload.
Heuristics 5
-
\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.
-
Large hex data blocks in OLE object high RTF_EXCESSIVE_HEXRTF contains ~1012KB of hex-encoded data inside \objdata sections — may hide a payload
-
OLE object data medium RTF_OBJDATARTF contains 1 \objdata section(s) — embedded OLE objects
-
Embedded OLE object medium RTF_OBJEMBRTF contains \objemb — embedded OLE object
-
Macro/content-enable lure medium SE_ENABLE_LUREDocument instructs the user to enable macros or editing — a common technique used by malware droppers to bypass Office macro security settings
