MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic

The file contains legacy WordBasic macro markers and is detected by ClamAV as a legacy trojan agent. The document body contains text indicating a fake virus infection alert, stating 'Hello user your computer is infected by ICE virus. Through several seconds your system will be destroyed.' This suggests a social engineering tactic to frighten the user. The presence of WordBasic macros indicates the potential for malicious script execution, likely related to the 'ICE' virus mentioned.
