MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic

The critical heuristic firing indicates the presence of the Excel 5 Laroux macro-virus marker cluster. This suggests the file contains malicious macros designed for propagation. However, VBA extraction failed due to an unsupported format, preventing deeper analysis of the script's specific actions. The DOC BODY content is not indicative of a specific lure.

Heuristics 2

  • Excel 5 Laroux macro-virus marker cluster critical OLE_XLS5_LAROUX_MACRO_VIRUS
    Legacy Excel workbook contains the Laroux macro-virus marker cluster including the hidden laroux module, auto_open/check_files routines, and PERSONAL.XLS replication strings. This is a narrow indicator for an infected legacy Excel macro workbook.
  • Unsupported Office format for VBA extraction info OFFICE_FORMAT_UNSUPPORTED
    olevba could not extract VBA macros (PermissionError); format-agnostic byte-level scans still ran. Likely legacy, encrypted, or malformed OLE/OOXML — re-scanning the same bytes will yield the same outcome.
