Malware Insights
The RTF document contains embedded OLE objects, indicated by the RTF_OBJDATA, RTF_OBJEMB, and RTF_OBJUPDATE heuristic firings. The RTF_OBJUPDATE rule specifically suggests that the embedded object is configured to activate automatically, which is a common technique for exploiting vulnerabilities in document parsers to achieve arbitrary code execution. While no specific payload or URL was extracted, the presence of these indicators strongly suggests a malicious document designed to exploit a vulnerability and likely download a secondary stage.
Heuristics 3
-
\objupdate forces OLE activation high RTF_OBJUPDATERTF contains \objupdate — forces automatic OLE object instantiation when the document is opened, bypassing user interaction. Almost exclusively seen in Equation Editor exploit documents.
-
OLE object data medium RTF_OBJDATARTF contains 1 \objdata section(s) — embedded OLE objects
-
Embedded OLE object medium RTF_OBJEMBRTF contains \objemb — embedded OLE object
