MITRE ATT&CK
T1059 Command and Scripting Interpreter

The sample is an OLE document with a high degree of slack space, indicating potential obfuscation or embedded malicious content. The presence of an x86 GetPC stub further suggests the execution of non-standard code. While no specific payload or delivery mechanism is directly evident from the limited heuristics and lack of document body or script content, these indicators strongly suggest a malicious intent, likely for payload delivery.

Heuristics 2

  • x86 GetPC stub (CALL $+5; POP EDI) high SC_GETPC_CALL
    x86 GetPC stub (CALL $+5; POP EDI)
  • OLE document has large unaccounted-for region high OLE_SLACK_ANOMALY
    OLE file is 54,154 bytes but its declared streams total only 24,565 bytes — 29,589 bytes (55%) 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).
