The presence of an Auto_Open macro and a GetObject call strongly indicates malicious intent. The Auto_Open macro is automatically executed upon opening the presentation, and the GetObject call is often used to instantiate and execute objects, likely to download and run a second-stage payload. No specific family could be identified from the available heuristics.

Heuristics 4

  • Auto_Open macro high OLE_VBA_AUTO
    Auto_Open macro
  • 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
