MITRE ATT&CK
T1204 Malicious File T1059 Command and Scripting Interpreter

The OOXML_REMOTE_TEMPLATE and OOXML_EXTERNAL_REL heuristics indicate that this document is configured to fetch content from an external URL. The ClamAV detection name 'Doc.Downloader' further supports that this document is a downloader. The extracted URL, http://bit.do/fQyHw, is likely the source of the malicious payload. The document body is minimal and does not provide further context.

Heuristics 4

  • ClamAV: Doc.Downloader.Redline-9972754-0 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Doc.Downloader.Redline-9972754-0
  • Remote template injection high OOXML_REMOTE_TEMPLATE
    Document references a remote template URL (http://bit.do/fQyHw) — a common remote-template-injection vector used by Hancitor, Emotet and many phishing campaigns. Word can fetch and apply the remote template; macros in that template may execute depending on Office policy and trust state.
  • External relationship medium OOXML_EXTERNAL_REL
    External target in word/_rels/webSettings.xml.rels: http://bit.do/fQyHw
  • 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.
    URL http://bit.do/fQyHw
