MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.001 PowerShell T1059.005 Visual Basic T1204.002 Malicious File T1105 Ingress Tool Transfer

The Document_Open macro executes a PowerShell command that downloads a second-stage executable from 'http://bit.do/mar-signature_request' and saves it as 'C:\Users\Public\Documents\bornexist.exe'. The macro also creates a batch file 'C:\Users\Public\Documents\god.bat' containing the PowerShell command. The use of GetObject to interact with COM objects suggests an attempt to establish persistence or execute arbitrary code.

  • GetObject call high OLE_VBA_GETOBJ
    GetObject call
  • VBA p-code auto-exec with execution tokens high OLE_VBA_PCODE_AUTOEXEC_EXEC
    Compiled VBA/cache stream contains an auto-execution token together with shell/download/object-execution tokens. This catches p-code-only or source-extraction-failure macro documents where visible source is unavailable.
  • 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.
