MITRE ATT&CK
T1027 Obfuscated Files or Information

The file is an OLE document with significant slack space, indicating potential obfuscation or embedded malicious content. Heuristics indicate XOR-encoded strings and PEB access, common in malware. The document body contains references to embedded Excel and PowerPoint objects, further supporting the idea of a malicious container. No specific family could be identified.

Heuristics 3

  • XOR-encoded strings (key 0xEE) critical SC_XOR_ENCODED
    Found 4 Windows library/API name(s) XOR-encoded with single-byte key 0xEE: 'KERNEL32.DLL', 'LoadLibraryA', 'GetProcAddress', 'ExitProcess'
  • PEB access via FS segment (x86) high SC_PEB_ACCESS
    PEB access via FS segment (x86)
  • OLE document has large unaccounted-for region high OLE_SLACK_ANOMALY
    OLE file is 105,897 bytes but its declared streams total only 61,092 bytes — 44,805 bytes (42%) 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).
