MITRE ATT&CK
T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution

The RTF file contains an embedded OLE object that triggers a critical vulnerability, CVE-2017-11882, in Microsoft Equation Editor. This exploit allows for the execution of arbitrary code on the victim's machine, likely to download and run a secondary payload.

Heuristics 3

  • CVE-2017-11882 — Equation Editor FONT record overflow critical CVE likely CVE_2017_11882
    Equation Editor MTEF contains an overlong FONT typeface field, the vulnerable copy primitive for CVE-2017-11882. This is stronger evidence than the Equation Editor CLSID alone because it identifies the malformed record that drives code execution in EQNEDT32.EXE.
