MITRE ATT&CK

T1059.005 Visual Basic T1105 Ingress Tool Transfer

The file contains VBA macros that leverage Wscript.Shell to execute commands. The document body contains a heavily obfuscated string that, when decoded, reveals multiple URLs. The script's primary function appears to be downloading and executing a second-stage payload from these URLs, consistent with a downloader malware.
