MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1204.002 Malicious File

The RTF file contains OLE object data and an \objupdate directive, indicating it's designed to activate embedded objects. This strongly suggests a malicious intent to exploit vulnerabilities or execute embedded code upon opening. No specific family could be identified, and the document body was too obfuscated to determine a clear lure.

Heuristics 2

  • \objupdate forces OLE activation high RTF_OBJUPDATE
    RTF contains \objupdate — forces automatic OLE object instantiation when the document is opened, bypassing user interaction. Almost exclusively seen in Equation Editor exploit documents.
  • OLE object data medium RTF_OBJDATA
    RTF contains 1 \objdata section(s) — embedded OLE objects
