MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The sample contains a legacy WordBasic AutoClose macro, a known indicator of malicious documents. The macro is likely intended to execute malicious code upon opening or closing the document, as suggested by the 'AutoClose' marker and the 'Win.Trojan.Nop-4' ClamAV detection. The document body contains text that appears to be part of the macro's execution flow, including a message indicating infection by 'TAOA II'.

Heuristics 2

  • ClamAV: Win.Trojan.Nop-4 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Win.Trojan.Nop-4
  • Legacy WordBasic auto-exec macro marker medium OLE_LEGACY_WORDBASIC_AUTOEXEC
    OLE Word document contains a legacy WordBasic auto-execution marker such as AutoOpen, but no modern VBA project was recovered and no stronger macro-virus family marker was present. This is analyst-facing evidence for old Word macro execution surface, not a downloader or parser-CVE attribution by itself.
