T1059.005 Visual Basic T1204.002 Malicious File T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The sample contains VBA macros that include a critical heuristic firing for Shell() calls. The macro attempts to disable security features and then executes a file located at \\jdq\cc$\b.exe. This indicates a macro-based downloader designed to execute a second-stage payload.

Heuristics 4

  • ClamAV: Doc.Macro.DeleteMacro-6096859-0 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Doc.Macro.DeleteMacro-6096859-0
  • VBA macros detected medium 1 related finding OLE_VBA_MACROS
    Document contains VBA macro code
  • Shell() call in VBA critical OLE_VBA_SHELL
    Shell() call in VBA
  • 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.
