MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1027 Obfuscated Files or Information T1105 Ingress Tool Transfer

The sample contains VBA macros with AutoOpen and AutoClose functions, indicative of malicious intent. The AutoOpen macro attempts to export VBA components to the Windows directory and execute them, likely to download and run a second-stage payload. The AutoClose macro attempts to UUEncode a file and potentially email it, suggesting lateral movement or further infection. The ClamAV detection 'Doc.Trojan.Jorby-1' further supports its malicious nature.

Heuristics 8

  • ClamAV: Doc.Trojan.Jorby-1 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Doc.Trojan.Jorby-1
  • VBA macros detected medium 5 related findings OLE_VBA_MACROS
    Document contains VBA macro code
  • AutoOpen macro high OLE_VBA_AUTOOPEN
    AutoOpen macro
  • Auto_Close macro high OLE_VBA_AUTOCLOSE
    Auto_Close macro
  • CreateObject call high OLE_VBA_CREATEOBJ
    CreateObject call
  • 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.
  • Environ() call (env variable access) low OLE_VBA_ENVIRON
    Environ() call (env variable access)
  • 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.
