The RTF file contains OLE object data and is configured to automatically update and activate an OLE object. This behavior is indicative of an exploit for CVE-2017-0199, which leverages remote URL monikers to download and execute a secondary payload. The embedded URL http://192.168.1.90/logo.doc is the target for this payload.
