The presence of an Excel 4.0 macro with Auto_Open and references to ShellExecute strongly indicates a downloader. The macro likely executes a dangerous function like RUN to fetch and execute a payload from the embedded URL. The ClamAV detection name 'Doc.Downloader.Docusign0521-9864805-0' further supports this, suggesting a lure related to document delivery or signing services.

    Reference to ShellExecute API
  • XLM Auto_Open with dangerous formula APIs high OLE_XLM_DANGEROUS_FN
    Excel 4.0 macro sheet contains an Auto_Open / Auto_Close entry and dangerous XLM formula APIs that can invoke programs, write files, or transfer control without VBA.
  • Excel 4.0 (XLM) macro sheet present medium OLE_XLM_AUTOOPEN

  • Embedded URL info EMBEDDED_URL
    One or more URLs were extracted from the document. The URL itself is not a detection — see the per-URL labels for which channel (macro, JS, link annotation, document body, ...) reached each URL.
