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

The file is detected as Xls.Downloader.TrendMicroDridex0521-9860965-0 by ClamAV, indicating a Dridex downloader. The document body contains strings like 'rundll32.exe', 'ADODB.Stream', 'Wscript.Shell', and 'MSXML2.XMLHTTP', along with multiple URLs, suggesting an attempt to download and execute a second-stage payload. The heuristic 'SE_CLIPBOARD_COMMAND_LURE' further supports the idea that the user is being prompted to execute commands, likely involving these components.

Heuristics 4

  • ClamAV: Xls.Downloader.TrendMicroDridex0521-9860965-0 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Xls.Downloader.TrendMicroDridex0521-9860965-0
  • Clipboard command execution lure high SE_CLIPBOARD_COMMAND_LURE
    Document tells the user to copy or paste clipboard content into Run, PowerShell, cmd, or another shell-like execution context
  • LOLBin token sequence in document text high SE_LOLBIN_RUN_COMMAND
    Extracted document text contains a Windows script/execution tool name (PowerShell, mshta, cmd, rundll32, regsvr32, …) within 220 characters of a dangerous flag, command verb, or URL. This is a visible 'run this' instruction in HTML/PDF/RTF lure bodies, or — in macro-laden Office files — the macro's own string-pool entries appearing adjacent in extracted text.
  • Embedded URL info EMBEDDED_URL
    One 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.
