MITRE ATT&CK
T1204.002 Malicious File T1566.002 Spearphishing Attachment

The file exhibits characteristics of a malicious OOXML document, specifically triggering heuristics for remote template injection and external relationships. The presence of the URL https://linkrjb.me/Y2byjV, associated with these heuristics, strongly suggests an attempt to load external malicious content. This indicates a likely attack pattern involving social engineering to trick the user into opening a document that then fetches and executes further malicious code.

Heuristics 3

  • Remote template injection high OOXML_REMOTE_TEMPLATE
    Document references a remote template URL (https://linkrjb.me/Y2byjV) — 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: https://linkrjb.me/Y2byjV
  • 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.
