Malicious Document Analysis: Example 2

I returned to write the second article of Malware Analysis Series (MAS) last January/08 after receiving an outstanding support from a high-profile professional and company of the industry, but while the article is not ready (I working on page 43 and far from the end), I spent a couple of hours writing a simple and short article on malicious document analysis. I hope it helps someone.

The PDF version is available on: https://exploitreversing.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/01/mda_2-2.pdf

Keep reversing and have an excellent day.
