The RTF file contains OLE object data and an \objupdate directive, indicating it's designed to activate embedded objects. The heuristic 'SE_ENABLE_LURE' confirms the document instructs the user to enable editing, a typical social engineering tactic to bypass security measures and execute malicious content.

    RTF contains 1 \objdata section(s) — embedded OLE objects
  • Macro/content-enable lure medium SE_ENABLE_LURE
