MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1204.002 Malicious File

The RTF file contains OLE object data and an \objupdate directive, indicating an attempt to embed and activate external content. While no specific document body or script content was provided for detailed analysis, the presence of these RTF-specific indicators strongly suggests a malicious intent, likely to exploit OLE vulnerabilities or deliver a secondary payload. The confidence is moderate due to the lack of more specific indicators.

Heuristics 2
