MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1059.001 PowerShell T1204.002 Malicious File

The RTF file contains OLE object data and an \objupdate directive, indicating it's designed to exploit OLE activation to run embedded content. The heuristic firings suggest a malicious RTF document, likely a downloader or dropper. The SHA256 hash is provided as a primary IOC. Confidence is moderate due to the lack of specific script content or URLs to confirm the exact payload delivery mechanism.

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
