MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic for Applications T1204.002 Malicious File T1105 Ingress Tool Transfer

The file contains Excel 4.0 (XLM) macros, specifically an Auto_Open macro that utilizes dangerous functions like RUN. This indicates the macro is intended to execute arbitrary code. The presence of an embedded URL suggests the macro's purpose is to download and execute a second-stage payload, likely a downloader. The ClamAV detection further supports its malicious nature.
