MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic

The critical heuristic firing indicates that the OOXML document contains an embedded OLE object with a VBA macro. This macro is designed to download and execute a second-stage payload from the URL https://www.mediafire.com/file/6dde6r6wjoelqt6/14.htm/file. The presence of this embedded macro and the external download URL strongly suggests a malicious intent to deliver further malware.

Heuristics 3

  • Embedded Office object carries macros critical OFFICE_EMBEDDED_MACRO_OBJECT
    This document embeds a second Office file that itself contains a VBA macro project or an Excel 4.0 (XLM) macro sheet. Hiding a macro-bearing workbook or document inside another document — frequently under an obfuscated, non-standard part name — is a macro-smuggling technique that defeats scanners which only inspect the outer document's macro storage. No benign authoring workflow stages a hidden macro project this way.
  • Embedded OLE object medium OOXML_OLE_OBJECT
    Document contains an embedded OLE object
  • 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.
