T1204.002 Malicious File
T1059.001 PowerShell
The RTF document contains multiple OLE objects, with heuristics indicating the use of ".objupdate" and Composite Monikers. This strongly suggests an attempt to exploit OLE object activation to execute embedded code. No document body text or scripts were extracted, limiting further analysis of the specific payload or lure. The attack pattern is inferred from the OLE object exploitation.
Heuristics 4
-
Composite Moniker in RTF OLE object high RTF_COMPOSITE_MONIKER_RELATEDRTF contains Composite Moniker CLSID in OLE object context, but no nearby scriptlet/SCT payload was confirmed. Treat as related moniker attack-surface evidence rather than proof of CVE-2017-8570 exploitation.
-
\objupdate forces OLE activation high RTF_OBJUPDATERTF 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_OBJDATARTF contains 3 \objdata section(s) — embedded OLE objects
-
Embedded OLE object medium RTF_OBJEMBRTF contains \objemb — embedded OLE object
