Hi,

Regularly we receive DOC files which contains virus. These virus is not
detected by ClamAV, but Kaspersky catches it as
"HEUR:Exploit.RTF.CVE-2018-0802.gen".  When I check the file using rtfobj,
it give the following output.

 

#rtfobj Balance\ Sheet\ .doc

rtfobj 0.54 on Python 2.7.5 - http://decalage.info/python/oletools

THIS IS WORK IN PROGRESS - Check updates regularly!

Please report any issue at https://github.com/decalage2/oletools/issues

How can we write customized rules to detect these doc file.

 

Thanks
