MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic

The file is a legacy Word document containing an auto-exec macro named 'autoopen'. This macro is designed to execute automatically upon opening the document, a common technique for initiating malicious actions. The presence of the 'Win.Trojan.Minimal-57' ClamAV detection further supports its malicious nature.

Heuristics 2

  • ClamAV: Win.Trojan.Minimal-57 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Win.Trojan.Minimal-57
  • Legacy WordBasic auto-exec macro marker medium OLE_LEGACY_WORDBASIC_AUTOEXEC
    OLE Word document contains a legacy WordBasic auto-execution marker such as AutoOpen, but no modern VBA project was recovered and no stronger macro-virus family marker was present. This is analyst-facing evidence for old Word macro execution surface, not a downloader or parser-CVE attribution by itself.
