MITRE ATT&CK
T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution

The RTF file contains OLE object data and is flagged for CVE-2017-0199 exploitation. This vulnerability allows the file to fetch and execute a remote payload from the URL http://benfodil.ddns.net/a.rtf. The presence of large hex-encoded data within OLE objects suggests the hiding of a malicious payload.
