Excel 4 Emotet Maldoc Analysis using CyberChef
This past week I got this attachment and this time I used CyberChef [3] using the same technique published by Didier [1] last year to do a quick analysis of the file vs using oledump. I checked the SHA256 in virustotal and it showed this file had been submitted for analysis and was identified as Emotet [2].
First I opened the suspicious file as input into CyberChef, next step was to applied Strings followed by Regular Expression and changed the default to URL to see if there was any URLs contained in this file.

distribute malware. Even if the URL listed on the ad shows a legitimate website, subsequent ad traffic can easily lead to a fake page. Different types of malware are distributed in this manner. I've seen IcedID (Bokbot), Gozi/ISFB, and various information stealers distributed through fake software websites that were provided through Google ad traffic. I submitted malicious files from this example to VirusTotal and found a low rate of detection, with some files not showing as malware at all. Additionally, domains associated with this infection frequently change. That might make it hard to detect.
