MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic

The sample exhibits characteristics of a legacy macro virus, including WordBasic markers and VBA macros with AutoOpen and Auto_Close routines. The script attempts to infect other documents by copying its code and modifies routines, indicating a self-propagation mechanism. The presence of an embedded URL suggests potential for further malicious activity or communication.

Heuristics 6

  • ClamAV: Doc.Trojan.Class-36 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Doc.Trojan.Class-36
  • Legacy WordBasic macro-virus markers high OLE_LEGACY_WORDBASIC_MACRO_VIRUS
    OLE Word document contains legacy WordBasic auto-execution macro markers such as AutoOpen plus ToolsMacro/MacroFile/fileMacro/globMacro or named historical macro-virus strings. These old Word 6/95 macro forms are not exposed as a modern VBA project, so normal VBA source extraction can miss them.
  • VBA macros detected medium 2 related findings OLE_VBA_MACROS
    Document contains VBA macro code
  • AutoOpen macro high OLE_VBA_AUTOOPEN
    AutoOpen macro
  • Auto_Close macro high OLE_VBA_AUTOCLOSE
    Auto_Close macro
  • 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://www.sunrisedoors.com In document text (OLE body)
