MITRE ATT&CK
T1204.002 Malicious File

The OOXML document contains heuristics indicating remote template injection and external relationship abuse, pointing to a malicious payload delivery mechanism. The primary IOC is the URL used for these injections, which is likely the source of the secondary payload. The presence of an embedded OLE object further supports the malicious nature of the document.

Heuristics 4

  • Remote template injection high OOXML_REMOTE_TEMPLATE
    Document references a remote template URL (https://GOODPURPECELCOLOURTHINGS___BETTERPLACEGREATNICEFEELINGSFOR.PNNG=$@vnxy.me/NvNNYk) — a common remote-template-injection vector used by Hancitor, Emotet and many phishing campaigns. Word can fetch and apply the remote template; macros in that template may execute depending on Office policy and trust state.
  • External relationship medium OOXML_EXTERNAL_REL
    External target in word/_rels/settings.xml.rels: https://GOODPURPECELCOLOURTHINGS___BETTERPLACEGREATNICEFEELINGSFOR.PNNG=$@vnxy.me/NvNNYk
  • Embedded OLE object medium OOXML_OLE_OBJECT
    Document contains an embedded OLE object
  • 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.
