MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The file is an OLE document containing VBA macros, specifically triggering a Document_Open macro. Heuristics indicate the presence of malicious VBA code, and ClamAV signatures identify it as 'Doc.Trojan.Thus-10'. The document body discusses 'Senioritis' as a pretext to engage the reader, likely to encourage macro execution. No specific second-stage payload or network indicators were extracted.

Heuristics 4

  • ClamAV: Doc.Trojan.Thus-10 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Doc.Trojan.Thus-10
  • ClamAV detection on extracted artifact critical EXTRACTED_FILE_CLAMAV
    ClamAV flagged at least one file extracted from inside this sample. Even when the wrapping document carries no AV detection of its own, a hit on the carved artifact is a strong indicator the sample is a delivery vehicle.
