MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic

The sample was identified as malicious due to the presence of legacy WordBasic macro markers, specifically 'fileMacro$'. This indicates the document likely contains a macro intended to execute arbitrary code, a common technique for delivering malware. The macro's specific function is not detailed, but its presence is sufficient to classify the document as a malicious macro-enabled file.

Heuristics 2

  • ClamAV: Doc.Trojan.Wazzu-6 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Doc.Trojan.Wazzu-6
  • Legacy WordBasic macro-virus markers high OLE_LEGACY_WORDBASIC_MACRO_VIRUS
    OLE Word document contains legacy WordBasic auto-execution macro markers such as AutoOpen plus ToolsMacro/MacroFile/fileMacro/globMacro or named historical macro-virus strings. These old Word 6/95 macro forms are not exposed as a modern VBA project, so normal VBA source extraction can miss them.
