Description

This module injects a malicious macro into a Microsoft Office Word document (docx). The
comments field in the metadata is injected with a Base64 encoded payload, which will be
decoded by the macro and execute as a Windows executable.

For a successful attack, the victim is required to manually enable macro execution.
