Hi,

In my opinion there are 2 flaws with extracting self.type, self.is_macro_enabled, self.is_template from the extension:

  • when running the tool on malicious files, one usually keeps the document names as per its d5/sha1/sha256, so officedissector will just fail because of no recognized extension
  • the macro-enabled extensions indicate that the file may contain macros, not that it does contain.

You can check http://www.decalage.info/files/JCV07_Lagadec_OpenDocument_OpenXML_v4_decalage.pdf for an interesting security assessment.
