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

The file is identified as malicious by ClamAV with the signature Win.Trojan.Wazzu-26. Static analysis revealed a legacy WordBasic macro marker 'AutoOpen', indicating automatic execution upon document opening. This suggests the file is likely a macro-enabled document used for initial access via spearphishing, intended to download and execute a secondary payload.

Heuristics 2

  • ClamAV: Win.Trojan.Wazzu-26 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Win.Trojan.Wazzu-26
  • Legacy WordBasic auto-exec macro marker medium OLE_LEGACY_WORDBASIC_AUTOEXEC
    OLE Word document contains a legacy WordBasic auto-execution marker such as AutoOpen, but no modern VBA project was recovered and no stronger macro-virus family marker was present. This is analyst-facing evidence for old Word macro execution surface, not a downloader or parser-CVE attribution by itself.
