MITRE ATT&CK
T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The RTF file exploits CVE-2017-0199, a known vulnerability for remote code execution via OLE object linking. The embedded URL 'http://rottastics36w.net/template.doc' is highly suspicious and likely serves as a lure for a second-stage payload. The ClamAV detection as 'Doc.Dropper.Agent-6249686-0' further confirms its malicious nature as a dropper.

Heuristics 5

  • CVE-2017-0199 (OLE2Link / remote URL Moniker) critical CVE likely CVE_2017_0199

    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Doc.Dropper.Agent-6249686-0
  • Automatically linked OLE object high RTF_OBJAUTLINK
    RTF contains \objautlink — an automatically linked OLE object surface that can be updated or activated when Word opens the document.
  • OLE object data medium RTF_OBJDATA
    RTF contains 1 \objdata section(s) — embedded OLE objects
  • 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.
