MITRE ATT&CK
T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution

The sample is an OOXML file containing an embedded OLE object, specifically identified as an Equation Editor object. Critical heuristics indicate a successful exploitation of CVE-2017-11882 through a FONT record overflow within this object. This vulnerability is known to allow arbitrary code execution, making it the primary attack vector.

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 OLE object high CVE related OLE_EQUATION_EDITOR
    Embedded OLE object xl/embeddings/oleObject1.bin contains the Equation Editor CLSID, the legacy component exploited by CVE-2017-11882, CVE-2018-0802, and CVE-2018-0798.
  • ClamAV: Doc.Exploit.CVE_2017_11882-6934206-0 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Doc.Exploit.CVE_2017_11882-6934206-0
  • Embedded OLE object medium OOXML_OLE_OBJECT
