MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic

The file is a Microsoft Word document containing VBA macros, specifically a Document_Open macro, which is a common technique for executing malicious code upon opening. The document body presents a list of Java programming tutorial topics, likely as a lure to encourage macro execution. The presence of a Document_Open macro indicates an attempt to automatically run code, and the ClamAV detection as 'Doc.Trojan.Thus-5' confirms its malicious nature. No specific IOCs like URLs or hashes were extracted from the macro itself.

Heuristics 4

  • ClamAV: Doc.Trojan.Thus-5 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Doc.Trojan.Thus-5
  • 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.
  • Document_Open macro high OLE_VBA_DOCOPEN
    Document_Open macro
  • VBA macros detected medium OLE_VBA_MACROS
    Document contains VBA macro code
