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

The RTF file contains embedded OLE objects, one of which has a PE header. This strongly suggests the file is designed to deliver and execute a secondary malicious payload. ClamAV identified it as Html.Trojan.GenericFakeAV-1, further supporting its malicious nature.

Heuristics 6

  • PE header (with DOS stub) in hex data critical RTF_MZ_HEX
    Hex-encoded PE (MZ + DOS stub) found inside RTF — likely an embedded executable payload
  • ClamAV: Html.Trojan.GenericFakeAV-1 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Html.Trojan.GenericFakeAV-1
  • Package object class high RTF_OBJCLASS_PACKAGE
    OLE Package object — can wrap arbitrary files
  • OLE object data medium RTF_OBJDATA
    RTF contains 1 \objdata section(s) — embedded OLE objects
  • Embedded OLE object medium RTF_OBJEMB
    RTF contains \objemb — embedded OLE object
