MITRE ATT&CK
T1204 Malicious Link

The OOXML file contains heuristics indicating remote template injection and external relationships, both pointing to the URL http://the-moondelight.96.lt/latest/version/secure/download/IN4447832. This suggests the document is designed to download and execute a secondary payload from this location. The document body content appears to be unrelated news, likely a lure.

Heuristics 3

  • Remote template injection high OOXML_REMOTE_TEMPLATE
    Document references a remote template URL (http://the-moondelight.96.lt/latest/version/secure/download/IN4447832) — a common remote-template-injection vector used by Hancitor, Emotet and many phishing campaigns. Word can fetch and apply the remote template; macros in that template may execute depending on Office policy and trust state.
  • External relationship medium OOXML_EXTERNAL_REL
    External target in word/_rels/settings.xml.rels: http://the-moondelight.96.lt/latest/version/secure/download/IN4447832
  • 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.
