MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic

The sample is a malicious Office document containing VBA macros. The Document_Open macro is present and appears to copy its own code to other VBComponents within the document, a technique used for persistence or evasion. The ClamAV heuristic also flags it as malicious. No external URLs or further payloads were identified in the static analysis.
