MITRE ATT&CK
T1204 Malicious Link

The file is an Excel spreadsheet identified by ClamAV as 'Xls.Dropper.QbotDocu12020-9818439-0', strongly suggesting Qbot family involvement. The primary attack pattern involves tricking the user into enabling macros, which would then likely download and execute a malicious payload. No document body or scripts were extracted, but the ClamAV signature is sufficient for attribution.
