MITRE ATT&CK
T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment
The RTF document contains an embedded OLE object that triggers CVE-2017-11882, a known vulnerability in Microsoft Equation Editor. This exploit allows for arbitrary code execution, likely to download and run a secondary payload. The presence of OLE object data and specific Equation Editor CLSID firings strongly indicate this attack vector.
Heuristics 4
-
CVE-2017-11882 — Equation Editor FONT record overflow critical CVE likely CVE_2017_11882Equation Editor MTEF contains an overlong FONT typeface field, the vulnerable copy primitive for CVE-2017-11882. This is stronger evidence than the Equation Editor CLSID alone because it identifies the malformed record that drives code execution in EQNEDT32.EXE.
