MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1059.005 Visual Basic

The file is a malicious OOXML document containing VBA macros, indicated by the OOXML_VBA and OLE_VBA_DOCOPEN heuristics. The presence of a Document_Open macro suggests an attempt to automatically execute code upon opening. The OLE_VBA_GETOBJ heuristic further points to suspicious object manipulation. No specific document body text or scripts were provided for deeper analysis, but the presence of macros strongly implies a macro-based execution attack pattern.

Heuristics 4

  • 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
  • Embedded URL info EMBEDDED_URL
    One or more URLs were extracted from the document. The URL itself is not a detection — context-specific rules above attribute URLs they actually evaluated; this rule lists URLs that were present in the bytes but were not otherwise tied to a specific finding.
