Stop Scanning My Macro

[html]

FireEye Labs detected an interesting evasion strategy in two recent,
  large Dridex campaigns. These campaigns changed the attachment
  file-type and location of malicious logic in an attempt to avoid scanners.


 

  Overview

 

Both campaigns used an invoice theme and came from a wide variety of
  sending addresses, with messages being sent to more than 40 countries
  across all industries, as seen in Figure 1 and Figure 2. The following
  subject lines were used:


 

Invoice <xxxx> from Tip Top Delivery
 Urgent: IMAGINiT
  invoice <xxxx> is Past due


 


 
  Figure 1. Affected Countries


 


 


 


  Figure 2. Affected Industries


 

What made these two campaigns interesting was the major shift in the
  downloader techniques used to evade signature-based detection. The
  following are some of the key techniques that were used:


 
  1. Disguising WordprocessingML as RTF file to evade type specific
      signatures.
  2. Keeping the main malicious macro clean to avoid
        macro-based detection. The malicious VBA code was instead stored in
        TextBox objects located within the Forms, as seen in Figure 4.

  3.    
  4. Dropping a VBE based downloader that could not be seen without
        execution of the malicious RTF file. This downloader would then
        download and execute the malicious payload.
