MITRE ATT&CK
T1204.002 Malicious File

The OLE document exhibits a large slack space anomaly, indicating potential obfuscation or embedded malicious content. Heuristics indicate the presence of NOP sleds and calls to memory allocation and dynamic library loading APIs (VirtualAlloc, LoadLibrary, GetProcAddress), suggesting the execution of shellcode. The document body contains references to embedded Office objects, which could be used to deliver exploits.

Heuristics 5

  • NOP sled detected high SC_NOP_SLED
    Found 20+ consecutive 0x90 bytes
  • Reference to LoadLibrary API high SC_STR_LOADLIBRARY
    Reference to LoadLibrary API
  • Reference to GetProcAddress API high SC_STR_GETPROCADDRESS
    Reference to GetProcAddress API
  • OLE document has large unaccounted-for region high OLE_SLACK_ANOMALY
    OLE file is 174,493 bytes but its declared streams total only 31,351 bytes — 143,142 bytes (82%) live in unallocated sector slack. This is the canonical hiding place for pre-macro-era Office exploit payloads (XOR-encoded shellcode reached via a parser pointer-corruption bug in the document structure).
  • Reference to VirtualAlloc API medium SC_STR_VIRTUALALLOC
    Reference to VirtualAlloc API
