The sample is an OLE document that fired a high-severity heuristic for referencing the CreateProcess API. This indicates an attempt to launch an external process. The document body is heavily corrupted and unreadable, preventing further analysis of its specific lure or intent. No scripts were extracted from this sample. The confidence is moderate due to the lack of readable content and specific IOCs.

Heuristics 2

  • Reference to CreateProcess API high SC_STR_CREATEPROCESS
    Reference to CreateProcess API
  • OLE document has large unaccounted-for region high OLE_SLACK_ANOMALY
    OLE file is 37,808 bytes but its declared streams total only 20,632 bytes — 17,176 bytes (45%) live in unallocated sector slack. This is the canonical hiding place for pre-macro-era Office exploit payloads (XOR-encoded shellcode reached via a parser pointer-corruption bug in the document structure).
