MITRE ATT&CK
T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The RTF file contains an OLE object that is automatically linked and updated, exploiting CVE-2017-0199. This vulnerability allows the embedded object to fetch and execute a remote file, identified as http://192.168.56.1/logo.doc, which is likely a secondary payload. The ClamAV detection confirms the exploit's malicious nature.
