MITRE ATT&CK
T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution

The OLE document exhibits a significant slack space anomaly, indicating potential obfuscation or embedded malicious content. Although the VBA macros contain no executable statements, the overall structure and the anomaly suggest an attempt to exploit a client-side vulnerability. Further analysis would be required to determine the exact exploit and payload.

Heuristics 2

  • OLE document has large unaccounted-for region high OLE_SLACK_ANOMALY
    OLE file is 355,566 bytes but its declared streams total only 43,795 bytes — 311,771 bytes (88%) live in unallocated sector slack. This is the canonical hiding place for pre-macro-era Office exploit payloads (XOR-encoded shellcode reached via a parser pointer-corruption bug in the document structure).
  • VBA project contains no executable statements info OLE_VBA_MACROS
    Document contains a VBA project, but extracted modules only contain attributes/options/comments and no executable statements.
