T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution
The sample is a Microsoft Word document that triggers CVE-2006-6456, a critical vulnerability related to malformed table SPRM data. This vulnerability allows for arbitrary code execution when the document is opened. The large slack space anomaly further suggests potential obfuscation or malicious padding within the OLE structure.
Heuristics 2
-
CVE-2006-6456 — Microsoft Word malformed table SPRM critical CVE exact CVE_2006_6456WordDocument contains a malformed table border-color SPRM in the CVE-2006-6456 shape: a valid table-SPRM cluster is followed by an invalid high-byte 0xFF SPRM where Word expects a normal sprmTBrc*Cv record. Vulnerable Word 2000/2002/2003 parsers corrupt memory while handling this malformed data structure.
-
OLE document has large unaccounted-for region high OLE_SLACK_ANOMALYOLE file is 162,816 bytes but its declared streams total only 94,801 bytes — 68,015 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).
