MITRE ATT&CK

T1059.001 PowerShell T1059.005 Visual Basic T1204.002 Malicious File

The sample is a macro-enabled Excel file that triggers a Workbook_Open macro. This macro uses `CreateObject` to instantiate `Wscript.Shell` and `Scripting.FileSystemObject`. It then proceeds to execute a batch file located at `c:\programdata\jledshf.bat` and a VBScript at `c:\programdata\sduoixo.vbs`. The VBScript appears to download a payload from a list of URLs, including `http://goyaluaat.vmeshaa.in/0v6kcnky/CG/`. The script also attempts to establish persistence by writing to the registry key `HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\IAccessible2Proxy`. The presence of these elements strongly indicates a downloader or droppper functionality.
