MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution

The RTF file contains an embedded OLE object, identified by the RTF_OBJDATA heuristic. The SC_XOR_ENCODED heuristic suggests that strings within the file, likely related to the embedded object's functionality, are obfuscated. ClamAV detection as Rtf.Dropper.Agent-7667313-0 further confirms its malicious nature as a dropper. The embedded object is likely a secondary payload designed to be executed.

Heuristics 4

  • XOR-encoded strings (key 0xF3) critical SC_XOR_ENCODED
    Found 2 Windows library/API name(s) XOR-encoded with single-byte key 0xF3: 'advapi32.dll', 'advapi32.dll'
  • ClamAV: Rtf.Dropper.Agent-7667313-0 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Rtf.Dropper.Agent-7667313-0
  • OLE object data medium RTF_OBJDATA
    RTF contains 1 \objdata section(s) — embedded OLE objects
  • OlePres presentation stream in RTF OLE object medium RTF_OLEPRES_STREAM
