MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment
T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution
The sample contains an embedded OLE object that is identified as a package payload designed to download and execute a file. The document body prompts the user to click the package, ostensibly for a Word update, which is a common social engineering tactic. The embedded object is specifically flagged as an MSI installer, indicating a direct execution attempt. The primary URLs associated with the payload download are http://t2.symcb.com and related domains.
Heuristics 6
-
Ole10Native package payload is a download-and-execute script critical OFFICE_PACKAGE_SCRIPT_DROPPERThe OLE Package's embedded payload contains a script that hosts a shell (PowerShell/WScript/mshta), fetches a remote resource, and executes it — a download-and-run dropper. Embedding such a script inside an Office document via the Object Packager is a direct user-execution delivery technique (MITRE T1204.002), not a benign attachment.
-
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 (16 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://t2.symcb.com0 Embedded OLE package script
