MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1204.002 Malicious File

The RTF file contains OLE object data and a heuristic firing indicates that \objupdate forces OLE activation. This suggests the file is designed to exploit OLE object handling to execute embedded code. No document body or script content was available for further analysis, limiting the ability to determine the specific payload or family.

Heuristics 2
