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

The file is a malicious OLE document containing VBA macros, specifically an AutoOpen macro. The presence of GetObject calls and VBA p-code auto-execution indicates the macro is designed to run code. The ClamAV detection and heuristic firings confirm its malicious nature. The primary IOC is the embedded 'macros.bas' file, which likely contains the malicious VBA code.

Heuristics 7

  • ClamAV: Doc.Malware.Drvb-6901569-0 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Doc.Malware.Drvb-6901569-0
  • AutoOpen macro high OLE_VBA_AUTOOPEN
    AutoOpen macro
  • GetObject call high OLE_VBA_GETOBJ
    GetObject call
  • VBA p-code auto-exec with execution tokens high OLE_VBA_PCODE_AUTOEXEC_EXEC
    Compiled VBA/cache stream contains an auto-execution token together with shell/download/object-execution tokens. This catches p-code-only or source-extraction-failure macro documents where visible source is unavailable.
  • Suspicious extracted artifact high EXTRACTED_FILE_STATIC_TRIAGE
    One or more files extracted from inside this sample matched static suspicious-content checks such as script obfuscation, encoded payload blobs, packed data, or execution/download terms.
  • VBA macros detected medium OLE_VBA_MACROS
    Document contains VBA macro code
  • 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.
