The sample leverages OOXML_ALTCHUNK_RTF and OOXML_ALTCHUNK_RTF_AUTOUPDATE_PE heuristics, indicating it imports an RTF document via altChunk which then auto-updates an embedded executable. The RTF object itself contains OLE objects, excessive hex data, and a PE header, strongly suggesting it's a malicious payload. The CVE-2026-21514 firing confirms a specific OLE security bypass vulnerability is exploited. The embedded RTF object likely contains and executes a second-stage payload.
Heuristics 10
-
Composite Moniker in RTF OLE object high RTF_COMPOSITE_MONIKER_RELATED(in altChunk RTF word/Telco.rtf) RTF contains Composite Moniker CLSID in OLE object context, but no nearby scriptlet/SCT payload was confirmed. Treat as related moniker attack-surface evidence rather than proof of CVE-2017-8570 exploitation.
-
CVE-2026-21514 — Word/OLE security bypass in RTF high CVE likely CVE_2026_21514(in altChunk RTF word/Telco.rtf) RTF contains a hidden \svb hex package with DrsE2oDoc and downRevStg drawing compatibility parts. This matches an observed CVE-2026-21514 exploitation shape that manipulates Word's internal document structure and trust decisions.
-
altChunk imports embedded RTF (RTF injection) critical OOXML_ALTCHUNK_RTFDocument inlines an embedded RTF via an aFChunk relationship and a <w:altChunk> body element. This is the canonical RTF-injection wrapper used to smuggle RTF exploits (Equation Editor / URL Moniker / objdata) past DOCX-only scanners. Word opens the wrapper and executes the RTF inline. Recursing into the RTF for the exact exploit primitive.
-
PE header (with DOS stub) in hex data critical RTF_MZ_HEX(in altChunk RTF word/Telco.rtf) Hex-encoded PE (MZ + DOS stub) found inside RTF — likely an embedded executable payload
-
altChunk RTF auto-updates embedded executable object critical OOXML_ALTCHUNK_RTF_AUTOUPDATE_PEOOXML document imports an embedded RTF through altChunk; the RTF contains OLE object data, forces object update, and carries a hex-encoded PE payload. This is a stronger compound exploit-loader shape than a generic altChunk RTF wrapper, but it is not tied to a single CVE unless the nested RTF object primitive also matches one.
-
\objupdate forces OLE activation high RTF_OBJUPDATE(in altChunk RTF word/Telco.rtf) RTF contains \objupdate — forces automatic OLE object instantiation when the document is opened, bypassing user interaction. Almost exclusively seen in Equation Editor exploit documents.
-
Large hex data blocks in OLE object high RTF_EXCESSIVE_HEX(in altChunk RTF word/Telco.rtf) RTF contains ~1693KB of hex-encoded data inside \objdata sections — may hide a payload
-
OLE object data medium RTF_OBJDATA(in altChunk RTF word/Telco.rtf) RTF contains 2 \objdata section(s) — embedded OLE objects
-
Embedded OLE object medium RTF_OBJEMB(in altChunk RTF word/Telco.rtf) RTF contains \objemb — embedded OLE object
-
Embedded URL info EMBEDDED_URLOne 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.microsoft.com/office/word/2010/wordprocessingCanvas
