MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.001 PowerShell T1204.002 Malicious File

The sample is a malicious OLE document containing an embedded PE executable. The document body presents itself as a commercial contract to deceive the user. The presence of an embedded executable and references to WinExec and VirtualAlloc APIs suggest the document is designed to drop and execute a secondary payload. The 'OLE_EMBEDDED_EXE' heuristic directly confirms the presence of a PE executable within the OLE structure.

Heuristics 4

  • OLE with Ole10Native — possible CVE-2026-21514 exploitation high CVE likely CVE_2026_21514
    Document contains a Word OLE object with Ole10Native plus executable, PE, or risky remote-link indicators. CVE-2026-21514 exploits OLE metadata validation; this stronger structure is treated as likely exploitation.
  • Embedded PE executable critical OLE_EMBEDDED_EXE
    MZ/PE header found inside document — possible embedded executable
  • Reference to WinExec API high SC_STR_WINEXEC
    Reference to WinExec API
  • Reference to VirtualAlloc API medium SC_STR_VIRTUALALLOC
    Reference to VirtualAlloc API
