MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1204.002 Malicious File T1027 Obfuscated Files or Information

The RTF file contains multiple embedded OLE objects, with the \objupdate directive indicating an attempt to force activation. This strongly suggests an exploit targeting RTF parsing vulnerabilities to execute embedded content. While no specific payload or script was directly extracted, the presence of multiple OLE objects and the objupdate heuristic point towards a delivery mechanism for a secondary exploit or payload. The document body consists of font information, providing no user-facing lure.

Heuristics 4

  • \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.
  • OLE object data medium RTF_OBJDATA
    RTF contains 12 \objdata section(s) — embedded OLE objects
  • Embedded OLE object medium RTF_OBJEMB
    RTF contains \objemb — embedded OLE object
  • 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.
