MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic for Applications
T1204.002 Malicious File
The sample is an Excel 4.0 (XLM) macro-enabled document. It contains an Auto_Open macro that uses dangerous formula APIs, specifically the RUN function, indicating it's designed to execute arbitrary code. The document body contains text that appears to be obfuscated instructions for downloading and running a file from the provided URL. The presence of the 'SE_ENABLE_LURE' heuristic further suggests the document is designed to trick users into enabling macros.
