MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1059.003 Windows Command Shell

The sample is a malicious OOXML document containing VBA macros. The presence of an AutoOpen macro and a Shell() call indicates that the document is designed to automatically execute malicious code upon opening. This code likely downloads and executes a second-stage payload, as suggested by the ClamAV detection name and heuristic firings. No specific URLs or hashes were extracted, but the overall behavior points to a downloader malware.

Heuristics 6

  • Shell() call in VBA critical OLE_VBA_SHELL
    Shell() call in VBA
  • ClamAV: Doc.Downloader.8f0f0f0fe0f0f0f0-OOXML-9981534-0 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Doc.Downloader.8f0f0f0fe0f0f0f0-OOXML-9981534-0
  • AutoOpen macro high OLE_VBA_AUTOOPEN
    AutoOpen macro
  • Suspicious extracted artifact high EXTRACTED_FILE_STATIC_TRIAGE
    One or more files extracted from inside this sample matched static suspicious-content checks such as script obfuscation, encoded payload blobs, packed data, or execution/download terms.
  • VBA project inside OOXML medium OOXML_VBA
    Document contains vbaProject.bin — VBA macros present
  • 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.
