MITRE ATT&CK
T1204.002 Malicious File

The sample is a malicious OLE document that contains a reference to the CreateProcess API, indicating an attempt to launch an external process. The document also contains embedded URLs that could be used for further malicious activity. The large slack space in the OLE structure is also anomalous.

Heuristics 3

  • Reference to CreateProcess API high SC_STR_CREATEPROCESS
    Reference to CreateProcess API
  • OLE document has large unaccounted-for region high OLE_SLACK_ANOMALY
    OLE file is 65,952 bytes but its declared streams total only 21,151 bytes — 44,801 bytes (68%) 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).
  • 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.
