MITRE ATT&CK
T1559.002 Component Object Model Hijacking T1204.002 Malicious File

The RTF file contains embedded OLE objects, including a package object and a PE header in hex data. ClamAV detections indicate the presence of a Trojan Agent. The embedded artifact, objdata_00_off000000cf.bin, was also flagged by ClamAV. This suggests the document is designed to deliver a malicious executable payload.

Heuristics 7

  • Composite Moniker in RTF OLE object high CVE related RTF_COMPOSITE_MONIKER_RELATED
    RTF contains Composite Moniker CLSID in OLE object context, but no nearby scriptlet/SCT payload was confirmed. Treat as related moniker attack-surface evidence rather than proof of CVE-2017-8570 exploitation.
  • PE header (with DOS stub) in hex data critical RTF_MZ_HEX
    Hex-encoded PE (MZ + DOS stub) found inside RTF — likely an embedded executable payload
  • ClamAV: Win.Trojan.Agent-230724 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Win.Trojan.Agent-230724
  • ClamAV detection on extracted artifact critical EXTRACTED_FILE_CLAMAV
    ClamAV flagged at least one file extracted from inside this sample. Even when the wrapping document carries no AV detection of its own, a hit on the carved artifact is a strong indicator the sample is a delivery vehicle.
  • Package object class high RTF_OBJCLASS_PACKAGE
    OLE Package object — can wrap arbitrary files
  • OLE object data medium RTF_OBJDATA
    RTF contains 1 \objdata section(s) — embedded OLE objects
  • Embedded OLE object medium RTF_OBJEMB
    RTF contains \objemb — embedded OLE object
