T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1204.002 Malicious File

The RTF file contains embedded OLE objects, with heuristics indicating that \objupdate forces OLE activation. This suggests the document is designed to exploit vulnerabilities associated with OLE object handling to execute arbitrary code. The presence of embedded OLE objects and the activation trigger strongly indicate a malicious intent to deliver a secondary payload.
