MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic

The sample exhibits legacy WordBasic macro virus markers, specifically 'FileMacro$', and is identified by ClamAV as 'Doc.Trojan.Twister-1'. The presence of numerous automacro commands like AutoExec, FileSaveAs, and AutoExit suggests the macro is designed to execute automatically and perform malicious actions within the document environment. The specific family is unknown due to the legacy nature and lack of further indicators.

    OLE Word document contains legacy WordBasic auto-execution macro markers such as AutoOpen plus ToolsMacro/MacroFile/fileMacro/globMacro or named historical macro-virus strings. These old Word 6/95 macro forms are not exposed as a modern VBA project, so normal VBA source extraction can miss them.
