MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.002 Spearphishing Attachment T1059.001 PowerShell T1204.002 Malicious File

The file is an RTF document containing embedded OLE objects, with heuristics indicating that \objupdate forces OLE activation. This suggests the document is designed to exploit OLE vulnerabilities to execute embedded code. While no specific script was extracted, the presence of OLE objects strongly implies a delivery mechanism for a secondary payload. The SHA256 hash is included as a primary identifier.

Heuristics 3

  • \objupdate forces OLE activation high RTF_OBJUPDATE
    RTF contains \objupdate — forces automatic OLE object instantiation when the document is opened, bypassing user interaction. Almost exclusively seen in Equation Editor exploit documents.
  • OLE object data medium RTF_OBJDATA
    RTF contains 1 \objdata section(s) — embedded OLE objects
  • Embedded OLE object medium RTF_OBJEMB
    RTF contains \objemb — embedded OLE object
