MITRE ATT&CK
T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution

The sample is an OLE file containing an Ole10Native object, which is a known vector for dropping executable payloads. Heuristics indicate this object is likely to drop a VBScript, suggesting an exploitation attempt for client execution. The embedded VBScript is the primary indicator of malicious activity.

Heuristics 2

  • 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.
  • Ole10Native package drops an auto-executable payload critical OFFICE_PACKAGE_RISKY_FILE
    OLE Package displayName or fullPath ends in a directly auto-executable extension (a runnable binary or a script the default shell host runs on double-click). Embedding such a payload inside an Office document has no benign authoring use — it is a malware-delivery dropper.
