MITRE ATT&CK
T1204.002 Malicious File

The file exhibits remote template injection and external relationship heuristics, both pointing to the URL http://198.46.132.185/..-.-.-......................................................-...-/........................................................wbk. This strongly suggests the document is designed to download and execute a second-stage payload from this location. The ClamAV detection as 'Doc.Downloader.Redline-9972754-0' further supports this downloader behavior.

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://198.46.132.185/..-.-.-......................................................-...-/...................................................) — 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://198.46.132.185/..-.-.-......................................................-...-/...............................
  • 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.
