Condition

uint32( 0 ) == 0x74725c7b and filesize < 1500KB and ( $img_clsid or $sub_clsid ) and ( $http_url or $file_url )

In plain words (Heuristic)

  • The file must start with “{\rt” — an RTF document.
  • The file must be smaller than 1500KB (a cheap guard that skips large files).
  • Pattern $img_clsid must be present.
  • Pattern $sub_clsid must be present.
  • Pattern $http_url must be present.
  • Pattern $file_url must be present.
