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

The RTF file contains OLE object data and triggers heuristics for automatically linked and updating OLE objects, indicating an attempt to execute embedded code. While no specific document body content or scripts were extracted for direct analysis of user-facing lures or payload details, the OLE object activation strongly suggests a malicious intent to exploit vulnerabilities for code execution. The lack of further extracted content limits the ability to identify a specific family or detailed attack vector.

Heuristics 3

  • Automatically linked OLE object high RTF_OBJAUTLINK
    RTF contains \objautlink — an automatically linked OLE object surface that can be updated or activated when Word opens the document.
  • \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
