MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1059.003 Windows Command Shell T1204.002 Malicious File

The file is a macro-enabled Excel document detected by ClamAV as Doc.Malware.Valyria-10004384-0. The Workbook_Open macro and CreateObject heuristic indicate that malicious VBA code is executed upon opening the document. The script attempts to download and execute a second-stage payload from multiple URLs, including 'http://reumatismclinic.com/--/scCnm3mbJRpsaKBbrC/', and saves it as 'c:\programdata\jledshf.bat'. It also attempts to execute a VBScript from 'c:\programdata\sduoixo.vbs'.
