MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic

The file is identified as a legacy WordBasic macro-virus, specifically flagged by ClamAV as Win.Trojan.Concept-19. The presence of legacy macro virus markers and the specific ClamAV detection strongly suggest this is a variant of the Concept virus, which historically spread via malicious Word documents. The document body contains obfuscated macro code and references to macro names like 'ToolsMacro' and 'AutoOpen', consistent with macro-based malware execution.

    ClamAV detected this file as malware: Win.Trojan.Concept-19
  • Legacy WordBasic macro-virus markers high OLE_LEGACY_WORDBASIC_MACRO_VIRUS
    OLE Word document contains legacy WordBasic auto-execution macro markers such as AutoOpen plus ToolsMacro/MacroFile/fileMacro/globMacro or named historical macro-virus strings. These old Word 6/95 macro forms are not exposed as a modern VBA project, so normal VBA source extraction can miss them.
