MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.002 Spearphishing Attachment T1204.001 User Execution: Malicious Link

The file is an OOXML document containing an embedded OLE object and external relationships, indicative of malicious intent. The document body presents itself as a shipping instruction or order confirmation, but includes a phone number (86-411-82812850-8595) and prompts the user to call back, which is a common tactic for callback phishing or tech-support scams. The presence of hidden sheets further suggests an attempt to conceal malicious content. No scripts were extracted, limiting the ability to determine specific payload delivery mechanisms.

Heuristics 5

  • External relationship high OOXML_EXTERNAL_REL
    External target in xl/externalLinks/_rels/externalLink2.xml.rels: file:///\\esmad1ww00002\DataVstOrders\PEDIDOS DESDE SINGAPUR\2017\298337 WENZHOU PLEASURE TRADE COLTD 12000\COMM INV S80
  • Embedded OLE object medium OOXML_OLE_OBJECT
    Document contains an embedded OLE object
  • Callback phishing phone lure medium SE_CALLBACK_LURE
    Document asks the user to call a phone number in billing, refund, subscription, fraud, or security context — consistent with callback phishing or tech-support scam patterns
  • Hidden worksheet (hidden) low OOXML_HIDDEN_SHEET
    Excel workbook contains 4 hidden sheet(s) — hidden sheets are commonly used to conceal macro code, staging data, or intermediate payload construction
  • 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.
