MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.002 Phishing: Spearphishing Attachment

The file is an Excel document flagged by ClamAV as 'Xls.Dropper.QbotDocu12020-9818439-0'. This heuristic strongly suggests the file is a Qbot downloader. The document's metadata indicates it was created in 2006, which is unusually old for modern Qbot campaigns, but the detection name is specific enough to warrant a high confidence attribution.
