MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment
T1204.002 Malicious File
The RTF file contains an embedded OLE object, specifically targeting the Equation Editor vulnerability (RTF_EQUATION_EDITOR). This indicates an attempt to exploit a known weakness for initial access. The presence of OLE object data and auto-linking suggests the file is designed to execute embedded code or trigger an update mechanism, likely leading to the download and execution of a secondary payload. No specific family could be identified, but the exploit vector is clear.
Heuristics 5
-
Equation Editor CLSID critical RTF_EQUATION_EDITOREquation Editor OLE CLSID found inside an OLE object — exploited by CVE-2017-11882 / CVE-2018-0802 / CVE-2018-0798
-
Automatically linked OLE object high RTF_OBJAUTLINKRTF contains \objautlink — an automatically linked OLE object surface that can be updated or activated when Word opens the document.
-
\objupdate forces OLE activation high RTF_OBJUPDATERTF contains \objupdate — forces automatic OLE object instantiation when the document is opened, bypassing user interaction. Almost exclusively seen in Equation Editor exploit documents.
-
OLE object data medium RTF_OBJDATARTF contains 1 \objdata section(s) — embedded OLE objects
