MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.002 Phishing: Spearphishing Attachment

The file is an Excel spreadsheet identified by ClamAV as 'Xls.Dropper.QbotDocu12020-9818439-0', strongly indicating it functions as a dropper for the Qbot banking trojan. The primary attack pattern involves luring the user into opening the malicious spreadsheet, which then executes the embedded payload. No VBA or scripts were extracted, but the ClamAV detection is highly specific.
