MITRE ATT&CK
T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution

The RTF document contains an embedded OLE object that triggers a critical vulnerability in the Equation Editor (CVE-2017-11882). This vulnerability allows for the execution of arbitrary code on the victim's machine. No further stages or specific family indicators were identified.

Heuristics 4

  • CVE-2017-11882 — Equation Editor FONT record overflow critical CVE likely CVE_2017_11882
    Equation Editor MTEF contains an overlong FONT typeface field, the vulnerable copy primitive for CVE-2017-11882. This is stronger evidence than the Equation Editor CLSID alone because it identifies the malformed record that drives code execution in EQNEDT32.EXE.
  • Equation Editor CLSID critical RTF_EQUATION_EDITOR
    Equation Editor OLE CLSID found inside an OLE object — exploited by CVE-2017-11882 / CVE-2018-0802 / CVE-2018-0798
  • OLE object data medium RTF_OBJDATA
    RTF contains 1 \objdata section(s) — embedded OLE objects
