MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1105 Ingress Tool Transfer

The sample contains VBA macros that execute upon opening, leveraging WScript.Shell and CreateObject to download and execute a second-stage payload. The script attempts to download a file from an embedded URL and save it as 'main.jpg', then execute it. The presence of AutoOpen and Shell() calls strongly indicates a downloader functionality.
