MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1204.002 Malicious File

The sample contains VBA macros, specifically an AutoOpen macro, which is a common technique for executing malicious code upon opening a document. The macros likely download and execute a second-stage payload from one of the embedded unknown-reputation URLs. The document body itself is a generic planning template, providing no specific lure, but the presence of the AutoOpen macro and unknown URLs strongly suggests malicious intent.

Heuristics 3

  • AutoOpen macro high OLE_VBA_AUTOOPEN
    AutoOpen macro
  • VBA macros detected medium OLE_VBA_MACROS
    Document contains VBA macro code
  • 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.
