MITRE ATT&CK
T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution

The RTF document contains an embedded OLE object that triggers a critical heuristic for CVE-2017-11882, a known vulnerability in Microsoft Equation Editor. This exploit allows for arbitrary code execution, indicating a malicious intent to compromise the user's system.

Heuristics 3

  • CVE-2017-11882 — Equation Editor FONT record overflow critical CVE likely CVE_2017_11882
    Equation Editor MTEF contains an overlong FONT typeface field, the vulnerable copy primitive for CVE-2017-11882. This is stronger evidence than the Equation Editor CLSID alone because it identifies the malformed record that drives code execution in EQNEDT32.EXE.
