MITRE ATT&CK
T1059 Command and Scripting Interpreter

The sample is an OLE Excel file with a high slack anomaly, indicating potential obfuscation or embedded malicious content. The presence of an x86 GetPC stub heuristic firing suggests the potential for code execution. Without further script or URL evidence, the exact attack vector remains unclear, but the heuristics point towards a malicious document designed to execute code.

Heuristics 2

  • x86 GetPC stub (CALL $+5; POP EDI) high SC_GETPC_CALL
    x86 GetPC stub (CALL $+5; POP EDI)
  • OLE document has large unaccounted-for region high OLE_SLACK_ANOMALY
    OLE file is 62,346 bytes but its declared streams total only 24,565 bytes — 37,781 bytes (61%) 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).
