MITRE ATT&CK

T1059.005 Visual Basic for Applications T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The file is a Microsoft Word document containing VBA macros, specifically a Document_Open macro, which is a common technique for initial execution. ClamAV detections indicate it is a known malicious document. The document body presents a plausible-looking college course syllabus to trick the user into enabling macros, which would then execute the malicious payload.
