MITRE ATT&CK
T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution
The RTF file contains OLE object data, specifically triggering the CVE-2017-11882 Equation Editor vulnerability. This vulnerability is known to be exploited for client-side execution of arbitrary code. The presence of a decoded OLE1 object with high entropy further supports the exploitation of this known vulnerability.
Heuristics 4
-
Equation Editor OLE1 native payload — CVE-2017-11882 related critical CVE_2017_11882_RELATEDRTF decodes to an OLE1 Equation.3 embedded object whose native data is large and payload-like, and \objupdate requests automatic activation. This is the delivery shape used by Equation Editor RCE documents such as CVE-2017-11882/CVE-2018-0802, but the malformed MTEF record needed for exact attribution was not recovered.
-
\objupdate forces OLE activation high RTF_OBJUPDATERTF contains \objupdate — forces automatic OLE object instantiation when the document is opened, bypassing user interaction. Almost exclusively seen in Equation Editor exploit documents.
-
OLE object data medium RTF_OBJDATARTF contains 1 \objdata section(s) — embedded OLE objects
