Heuristics 3
-
CVE-2009-3129 — Excel FEATHEADER record overflow critical CVE exact CVE_2009_3129Workbook BIFF stream contains a FEATHEADER (Feature Header) record with anomalous size (record_size=23, isf=2, cbHdrData=4294967295). Legitimate FEATHEADER records are tiny (<100 bytes) and carry cbHdrData values that fit in the record body; the value here is the documented CVE-2009-3129 exploit primitive — cbHdrData drives a memcpy with attacker-controlled size, leading to memory corruption and code execution in Excel 2007/2003.

OLE document has large unaccounted-for region high OLE_SLACK_ANOMALYOLE file is 61,440 bytes but its declared streams total only 24,565 bytes — 36,875 bytes (60%) 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).
