MITRE ATT&CK
T1204.002 Malicious File: User Execution T1566.001 Phishing: Spearphishing Attachment

The OOXML_REMOTE_TEMPLATE and OOXML_EXTERNAL_REL heuristics indicate that this document is configured to load external content from the URL https://arnogo.net/WvRvbw?&cracker=smiling&pedestrian. This is a common technique for delivering malicious payloads. The presence of an embedded OLE object further supports the likelihood of malicious intent, potentially used to host or execute the payload. No scripts were extracted from this sample.

Heuristics 4

  • Remote template injection high OOXML_REMOTE_TEMPLATE
    Document references a remote template URL (https://arnogo.net/WvRvbw?&cracker=smiling&pedestrian) — a common remote-template-injection vector used by Hancitor, Emotet and many phishing campaigns. Word can fetch and apply the remote template; macros in that template may execute depending on Office policy and trust state.
  • External relationship medium OOXML_EXTERNAL_REL
    External target in word/_rels/settings.xml.rels: https://arnogo.net/WvRvbw?&cracker=smiling&pedestrian
  • Embedded OLE object medium OOXML_OLE_OBJECT
    Document contains an embedded OLE object
  • 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.
