MITRE ATT&CK

The presence of heuristics related to ShellExecute, VirtualAlloc, VirtualProtect, LoadLibrary, and GetProcAddress suggests that the document likely contains malicious code designed to execute a payload, possibly to facilitate further malicious activity beyond the initial social engineering lure.
