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

The OOXML document contains a VBA project with an AutoOpen macro, indicating malicious intent. The macro utilizes CreateObject to likely download and execute a second-stage payload from the provided URL. The presence of a long, encoded blob within the extracted VBA further supports this conclusion.

Heuristics 5

  • AutoOpen macro high OLE_VBA_AUTOOPEN
    AutoOpen macro
  • CreateObject call high OLE_VBA_CREATEOBJ
    CreateObject call
  • Suspicious extracted artifact high EXTRACTED_FILE_STATIC_TRIAGE
    One or more files extracted from inside this sample matched static suspicious-content checks such as script obfuscation, encoded payload blobs, packed data, or execution/download terms.
  • VBA project inside OOXML medium OOXML_VBA
    Document contains vbaProject.bin — VBA macros present
  • 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.
