MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.001 PowerShell T1059.005 Visual Basic

The sample contains VBA macros that execute upon opening the workbook, indicated by the Workbook_Open event and CreateObject calls. The script attempts to download and execute a batch file and a VBScript from various URLs. Specifically, it reconstructs a PowerShell command string that includes multiple URLs for downloading payloads, such as 'http://goyaluaat.vmesha.in/0v6kcny/CG/' and 'https://mars.srl/wp-admin/7Ffk6LN2Yx2W/'. The presence of Wscript.Shell and Scripting.FileSystemObject further supports the execution of scripts and file manipulation.
