MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution T1129 Shared Module Overwrite

The sample is identified as malicious by ClamAV with the signature Win.Packed.NetWire-10024619-0. It contains an embedded OLE object with indicators for exploitation, specifically mentioning CVE-2026-21514. This object is packaged to drop an auto-executable payload, likely an executable file, which is a common technique for delivering malware. The embedded URLs suggest potential command and control or payload download locations.

Heuristics 5

  • ClamAV: Win.Packed.NetWire-10024619-0 critical CLAMAV_DETECTION
    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Win.Packed.NetWire-10024619-0
  • Ole10Native package drops an auto-executable payload critical OFFICE_PACKAGE_RISKY_FILE
    OLE Package displayName or fullPath ends in a directly auto-executable extension (a runnable binary or a script the default shell host runs on double-click). Embedding such a payload inside an Office document has no benign authoring use — it is a malware-delivery dropper.
  • Embedded OLE object medium OOXML_OLE_OBJECT
    Document contains an embedded OLE object
  • Payload URL recovered from embedded OLE object (5 URLs) info OOXML_EMBEDDED_OBJECT_URL
    An embedded OLE object (xl/word/ppt embeddings) carries a next-stage download URL in its Ole10Native/Package stream — stored literally (incl. UTF-16) or base64-encoded — which the package-level URL sweep does not see. Surfaced as an IOC; self-validating (only real payload hosts).
  • 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.
