T1566.002 Spearphishing Attachment T1204.002 Malicious File T1059.001 PowerShell

The RTF file contains OLE object data and an \objupdate directive, indicating an attempt to exploit OLE activation for code execution. The embedded OLE object, when decoded, is a binary blob of significant size, suggesting it may contain a payload or exploit. While no specific script was extracted, the heuristics strongly suggest a malicious intent to leverage embedded objects for compromise. The SHA256 hash is included as a primary identifier.

Heuristics 2

  • \objupdate forces OLE activation high RTF_OBJUPDATE

  • OLE object data medium RTF_OBJDATA
    RTF contains 1 \objdata section(s) — embedded OLE objects
