MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic for Applications T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The file is a Microsoft Word document containing VBA macros, specifically an AutoOpen macro, which is a common technique for initial execution. Heuristics indicate the presence of malicious VBA macros and a critical ClamAV detection on an extracted artifact, identified as Win.Trojan.C-286. The document body discusses business intelligence software, likely a lure to encourage macro execution. The AutoOpen macro is designed to run malicious code upon opening the document, leading to the execution of the detected trojan.

Heuristics 3

  • ClamAV detection on extracted artifact critical EXTRACTED_FILE_CLAMAV

    AutoOpen macro
  • VBA macros detected medium OLE_VBA_MACROS
    Document contains VBA macro code
