The sample is an OLE document containing an embedded PE executable. The presence of Ole10Native and references to WinExec and VirtualAlloc APIs suggest the embedded executable is designed to be run, likely through exploitation of an OLE vulnerability like CVE-2026-21514. The embedded executable itself is the primary IOC.

Heuristics 4

  • OLE with Ole10Native — possible CVE-2026-21514 exploitation high CVE likely CVE_2026_21514
    Document contains a Word OLE object with Ole10Native plus executable, PE, or risky remote-link indicators. CVE-2026-21514 exploits OLE metadata validation; this stronger structure is treated as likely exploitation.
  • Embedded PE executable critical OLE_EMBEDDED_EXE
    MZ/PE header found inside document — possible embedded executable
  • Reference to WinExec API high SC_STR_WINEXEC
    Reference to WinExec API
  • Reference to VirtualAlloc API medium SC_STR_VIRTUALALLOC
    Reference to VirtualAlloc API
