MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.002 Phishing: Spearphishing Attachment

The file is identified by ClamAV as 'Xls.Dropper.QbotDocu12020-9818439-0', strongly suggesting it is a Qbot variant designed to drop a secondary payload. As an Excel file, it likely relies on social engineering to trick the user into enabling macros, which would then execute the malicious code. No VBA scripts or document body text were extracted, but the ClamAV detection is sufficient to infer the malicious intent.
