MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The file is detected as malicious by ClamAV with the signature Doc.Downloader.00536d-6707427-0. Although VBA macros could not be extracted due to an unsupported format, an embedded URL was identified within the document body. This URL, 'http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/drawingml/2006/main', is likely used as a lure to trick the user into clicking it, potentially leading to a further stage of infection.

Heuristics 3

  • ClamAV: Doc.Downloader.00536d-6707427-0 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Doc.Downloader.00536d-6707427-0
  • Unsupported Office format for VBA extraction info OFFICE_FORMAT_UNSUPPORTED
    olevba could not extract VBA macros (AssertionError); format-agnostic byte-level scans still ran. Likely legacy, encrypted, or malformed OLE/OOXML — re-scanning the same bytes will yield the same outcome.
  • 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.
