The file is an RTF document containing embedded OLE object data, indicated by the RTF_OBJDATA heuristic. The RTF_OBJUPDATE heuristic suggests that this object is designed to be activated, likely exploiting a vulnerability in Microsoft Office. While no specific exploit is identified, the presence of OLE objects and the update trigger strongly suggest an attempt to execute code. The document body is heavily obfuscated and does not provide clear user-facing content, further supporting a malicious intent. The SHA256 hash is included as a primary identifier.

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
