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

The sample exhibits legacy WordBasic macro virus markers, specifically 'RSN MACRO VIRUS', and contains AutoOpen and FileSaveAs VBA functions, indicating it's designed to execute malicious code upon opening or saving. The presence of these markers and functions strongly suggests a macro-based attack designed to spread or execute further payloads, aligning with the characteristics of older macro viruses.

  • Legacy WordBasic macro-virus markers high OLE_LEGACY_WORDBASIC_MACRO_VIRUS
    OLE Word document contains legacy WordBasic auto-execution macro markers such as AutoOpen plus ToolsMacro/MacroFile/fileMacro/globMacro or named historical macro-virus strings. These old Word 6/95 macro forms are not exposed as a modern VBA project, so normal VBA source extraction can miss them.
