MITRE ATT&CK
T1204 Malicious Link T1059 Command and Scripting Interpreter

The OOXML file contains heuristics indicating remote template injection and external relationships, both pointing to the URL https://urlize.cc/DCkI6B. This suggests the document is designed to load and execute content from this external source, likely to deliver a malicious payload. No scripts were extracted, but the presence of embedded EMF files could be part of the malicious content delivery chain.

Heuristics 3

  • Remote template injection high OOXML_REMOTE_TEMPLATE
    Document references a remote template URL (https://urlize.cc/DCkI6B) — a common remote-template-injection vector used by Hancitor, Emotet and many phishing campaigns. Word can fetch and apply the remote template; macros in that template may execute depending on Office policy and trust state.
  • External relationship medium OOXML_EXTERNAL_REL
    External target in word/_rels/settings.xml.rels: https://urlize.cc/DCkI6B
  • 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.
