MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.002 Phishing: Spearphishing Attachment

The file is identified by ClamAV as 'Xls.Dropper.QbotDocu12020-9818439-0', strongly suggesting it functions as a dropper for the Qbot banking trojan. The primary attack pattern involves luring a user into opening a malicious Excel file, which then likely executes embedded malicious code to download and run a further stage payload. The detection name itself implies a dropper functionality.
