MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1505.003 Server Software Component: Exploit Public-Facing Application

The sample contains a VBA macro with a Document_Open subroutine, which is a common technique for executing malicious code upon opening a document. The script attempts to create a file named 'qq.doc' in the user's template path. The presence of an OLE EMF object further suggests a potential exploit or malicious embedding. The exact purpose of 'qq.doc' is unclear due to script truncation, but its creation in the template directory is suspicious.

Heuristics 5

  • Office EPRINT stream contains EMF object high CVE related OLE_EPRINT_EMF_OBJECT
    OLE ObjectPool contains an EPRINT stream with EMF data. This is rare in normal documents and is CVE-2007-3893/MS07-046-family evidence when paired with Office exploit payload anomalies, but the malformed EMF record is not proven by this rule alone.
  • Document_Open macro high OLE_VBA_DOCOPEN
    Document_Open macro
  • VBA macros detected medium OLE_VBA_MACROS
    Document contains VBA macro code
  • Suspicious extracted artifact info EXTRACTED_FILE_STATIC_TRIAGE
    One or more files extracted from inside this sample matched static suspicious-content checks such as script obfuscation, encoded payload blobs, packed data, or execution/download terms.
  • Embedded URL info EMBEDDED_URL
    One or more URLs were extracted from the document. The URL itself is not a detection — see the per-URL labels for which channel (macro, JS, link annotation, document body, ...) reached each URL.
