MITRE ATT&CK

The sample is a malicious Word document containing VBA macros. The Document_Open macro attempts to disable virus protection and copy itself to the Normal template, likely to establish persistence. The script's truncated nature and obfuscation prevent a more detailed analysis of its full capabilities.
