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

The RTF document contains OLE object data and an \objupdate directive, indicating it's designed to automatically execute embedded content upon opening. This is a common technique for delivering malicious payloads. While no specific document body text was provided for analysis, the heuristics strongly suggest an attack pattern involving the execution of embedded code, likely to download and run a second-stage payload. The SHA256 hash is included as a primary identifier.

Heuristics 2

  • \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
