MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

This OOXML document contains VBA macros, specifically an AutoOpen macro, which is a common technique for executing malicious code automatically when the document is opened. The presence of CreateObject calls further suggests the script is designed to interact with the system, likely to download and execute a second-stage payload. No specific family could be identified, and no external IOCs were extracted.

Heuristics 5

  • AutoOpen macro high OLE_VBA_AUTOOPEN
    AutoOpen macro
  • CreateObject call high OLE_VBA_CREATEOBJ
    CreateObject call
  • Suspicious extracted artifact high EXTRACTED_FILE_STATIC_TRIAGE
    One or more files extracted from inside this sample matched static suspicious-content checks such as script obfuscation, encoded payload blobs, packed data, or execution/download terms.
  • VBA project inside OOXML medium OOXML_VBA
    Document contains vbaProject.bin — VBA macros present
  • 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.
