MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic

The critical ClamAV heuristic identifies the sample as Win.Trojan.Obay-1. Legacy WordBasic macros were detected, specifically referencing 'FileSaveAs' and 'AutoOpen' as auto-execution markers. The macro code includes commands like 'DELTREE /Y C:\' which suggests an attempt to delete files or hinder analysis, alongside deceptive error messages.

    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Win.Trojan.Obay-1
  • Legacy WordBasic auto-exec macro marker medium OLE_LEGACY_WORDBASIC_AUTOEXEC
    OLE Word document contains a legacy WordBasic auto-execution marker such as AutoOpen, but no modern VBA project was recovered and no stronger macro-virus family marker was present. This is analyst-facing evidence for old Word macro execution surface, not a downloader or parser-CVE attribution by itself.
