MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic

The file is an OOXML spreadsheet containing VBA macros, indicated by the 'OOXML_VBA' heuristic. The 'OLE_VBA_CREATEOBJ' heuristic suggests the macro attempts to execute arbitrary code. The document body contains a message prompting the user to enable security protection to view the full content, which is a common lure for macro-based attacks. No specific URLs or executable payloads were extracted, limiting further analysis.

Heuristics 3

  • CreateObject call high OLE_VBA_CREATEOBJ
    CreateObject call
  • VBA project inside OOXML medium OOXML_VBA
    Document contains vbaProject.bin — VBA macros present
  • 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.
    URL http://schemas.openxmlformats.org/spreadsheetml/2006/main
