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

The RTF document contains embedded OLE objects that are configured to automatically update and activate. This indicates an attempt to exploit vulnerabilities within the RTF parser or OLE object handling to execute arbitrary code. The presence of ".bin" file extension in the embedded artifact suggests it may contain a secondary payload.
