Malware Insights

The sample is a malicious OLE document that contains a reference to the CreateProcess API, indicating an attempt to launch an external process. The large slack space in the OLE structure is also anomalous. No specific malware family could be identified, and no executable content or network indicators were directly extracted.

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 95,648 bytes but its declared streams total only 21,151 bytes — 74,497 bytes (78%) 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.
