MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1204.002 Malicious File

The sample is a Word document containing VBA macros. The Document_Open macro is triggered upon opening the document. This macro constructs a URL 'http://frolol0.ru/' and then attempts to open a password-protected document named 'help.doc' from this URL. The macro's intent is to download and open a secondary malicious document. The benign URLs extracted are part of the document's schema and not malicious.

  • 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.
