MITRE ATT&CK

T1059.005 Visual Basic for Applications

The file is a Microsoft Word document containing VBA macros, specifically a Document_Open macro, which is a common technique for initiating malicious activity upon opening. The document body presents a template for a humanities community service analysis, a common lure for phishing or social engineering attacks. The presence of a Document_Open macro suggests an attempt to execute malicious code automatically, likely to download and execute a secondary payload, although no specific script content was provided for detailed analysis. The ClamAV detections further confirm its malicious nature.
