MITRE ATT&CK

T1059.005 Visual Basic T1059.003 Windows Command Shell T1204.002 Malicious File

The file is an Excel document containing a Workbook_Open macro that executes obfuscated commands. The script attempts to download and execute a second-stage payload from multiple URLs, including 'http://reumatismclinic.com/./scCn3mbJRpsaBKbbrC/'. It also creates batch and VBScript files in 'c:\programdata\' for execution. The ClamAV detection further confirms its malicious nature.
