MITRE ATT&CK
T1559.001 Component Object Model Hijacking T1204.002 Malicious File

The RTF file contains embedded OLE object data, specifically a package object, which is a strong indicator of malicious intent. ClamAV signatures confirm this, identifying the file as Win.Trojan.Clicker-4220. The presence of a PE header within the hex data further suggests an embedded executable. The primary attack pattern involves leveraging OLE object embedding to deliver a malicious payload.

Heuristics 6

  • PE header (with DOS stub) in hex data critical RTF_MZ_HEX
    Hex-encoded PE (MZ + DOS stub) found inside RTF — likely an embedded executable payload
  • ClamAV: Win.Trojan.Clicker-4220 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Win.Trojan.Clicker-4220
  • ClamAV detection on extracted artifact critical EXTRACTED_FILE_CLAMAV
    ClamAV flagged at least one file extracted from inside this sample. Even when the wrapping document carries no AV detection of its own, a hit on the carved artifact is a strong indicator the sample is a delivery vehicle.
  • Package object class high RTF_OBJCLASS_PACKAGE
    OLE Package object — can wrap arbitrary files
  • OLE object data medium RTF_OBJDATA
    RTF contains 1 \objdata section(s) — embedded OLE objects
  • Embedded OLE object medium RTF_OBJEMB
    RTF contains \objemb — embedded OLE object

Extracted artifacts 1
