MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The sample is an OLE file containing legacy WordBasic auto-exec macro markers, specifically 'AutoOpen'. This indicates an attempt to automatically run malicious code when the document is opened. ClamAV detection as Win.Trojan.Pox-7 further confirms its malicious nature. The macro's content is unclear due to its legacy format, but the presence of AutoOpen strongly suggests it's designed to download and execute a secondary payload.

Heuristics 2

  • ClamAV: Win.Trojan.Pox-7 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Win.Trojan.Pox-7
  • 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.
