T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment
T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution
T1129 Shared Content
The sample is a malicious OOXML document containing an embedded OLE object. Heuristics indicate this object is likely an exploit for CVE-2026-21514, designed to drop an executable payload. The embedded OLE object and associated Ole10Native package are the primary indicators of this malicious behavior, suggesting an attempt to execute a second-stage payload.
Heuristics 5
-
Ole10Native package drops an auto-executable payload critical OFFICE_PACKAGE_RISKY_FILEOLE Package displayName or fullPath ends in a directly auto-executable extension (a runnable binary or a script the default shell host runs on double-click). Embedding such a payload inside an Office document has no benign authoring use — it is a malware-delivery dropper.
-
Embedded OLE object medium OOXML_OLE_OBJECTDocument contains an embedded OLE object
-
Suspicious extracted artifact medium EXTRACTED_FILE_STATIC_TRIAGEOne or more files extracted from inside this sample matched static suspicious-content checks such as script obfuscation, encoded payload blobs, packed data, or execution/download terms.
-
Payload URL recovered from embedded OLE object (17 URLs) info OOXML_EMBEDDED_OBJECT_URLAn embedded OLE object (xl/word/ppt embeddings) carries a next-stage download URL in its Ole10Native/Package stream — stored literally (incl. UTF-16) or base64-encoded — which the package-level URL sweep does not see. Surfaced as an IOC; self-validating (only real payload hosts).
-
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://ocsp.thawte.com0 In document text (OOXML body / shared strings)
