MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.001 PowerShell
The sample is a malicious OLE document containing a NOP sled and references to CreateProcess and GetProcAddress APIs, indicating potential shellcode execution. The document body text is nonsensical and does not provide a clear lure. The presence of an embedded URL, though benign, suggests an attempt to download or interact with external resources. The high percentage of slack space in the OLE structure is also suspicious.
Heuristics 5
-
NOP sled detected high SC_NOP_SLEDFound 20+ consecutive 0x90 bytes
-
Reference to CreateProcess API high SC_STR_CREATEPROCESSReference to CreateProcess API
-
Reference to GetProcAddress API high SC_STR_GETPROCADDRESSReference to GetProcAddress API
-
OLE document has large unaccounted-for region high OLE_SLACK_ANOMALYOLE file is 199,374 bytes but its declared streams total only 31,351 bytes — 168,023 bytes (84%) live in unallocated sector slack. This is the canonical hiding place for pre-macro-era Office exploit payloads (XOR-encoded shellcode reached via a parser pointer-corruption bug in the document structure).
-
Embedded URL info EMBEDDED_URLOne 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.URL http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/drawingml/2006/main
