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

The file is an OOXML document containing VBA macros, specifically a Document_Open macro and a GetObject call, which are strong indicators of malicious intent. ClamAV detections confirm this, identifying it as Doc.Malware.Generic-7561115-0. The presence of these macros suggests the document is designed to execute arbitrary code upon opening, likely to download and execute a secondary payload. No specific family could be identified.

Heuristics 6

  • ClamAV: Doc.Malware.Generic-7561115-0 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Doc.Malware.Generic-7561115-0
  • ClamAV detection on extracted artifact critical EXTRACTED_FILE_CLAMAV
    ClamAV flagged at least one file extracted from inside this sample. Even when the wrapping document carries no AV detection of its own, a hit on the carved artifact is a strong indicator the sample is a delivery vehicle.
  • Document_Open macro high OLE_VBA_DOCOPEN
    Document_Open macro
  • GetObject call high OLE_VBA_GETOBJ
    GetObject call
  • VBA project inside OOXML medium OOXML_VBA
    Document contains vbaProject.bin — VBA macros present
