MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The sample is a malicious Microsoft Word document containing a VBA macro that executes upon opening, as indicated by the 'Document_Open' macro firing and ClamAV detection. The macro appears to be designed to infect the system, although its exact payload is obfuscated and truncated. The document body itself is a seemingly legitimate business offer, likely intended to trick the recipient into opening the malicious attachment.

Heuristics 4

  • ClamAV: Doc.Trojan.Thus-10 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Doc.Trojan.Thus-10
  • ClamAV detection on extracted artifact critical EXTRACTED_FILE_CLAMAV
