MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.001 PowerShell T1059.005 Visual Basic T1105 Ingress Tool Transfer

The VBA macro contains obfuscated strings that, when decoded, reveal a PowerShell command. This command is designed to download a file from 'https://saipat.in/ConsoleApp6.exe' and execute it. The use of `Shell()` and the reassembled 'PowerShell' keyword indicate malicious intent to execute arbitrary code.

Heuristics 4

  • VBA macros detected medium 2 related findings OLE_VBA_MACROS
    Document contains VBA macro code
  • Shell() call in VBA critical OLE_VBA_SHELL
    Shell() call in VBA
  • Dangerous API name reassembled from split string literals critical OLE_VBA_SPLIT_KEYWORD_OBFUSCATION
    VBA concatenates short string literals that reassemble a dangerous API/ProgID/LOLBin name (e.g. Scripting.FileSystemObject, WScript.Shell, powershell, URLDownloadToFile) which appears in no single literal. Splitting an API name across string concatenation is done only to evade keyword scanning.
  • Suspicious extracted artifact info 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.
