MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic
The sample is identified as malicious by ClamAV as Xls.Dropper.Agent-7679457-0. Static analysis revealed the presence of Excel 4.0 (XLM) macros, specifically triggering an Auto_Open event with a dangerous formula API (RUN). This indicates the macro is designed to execute arbitrary commands, likely to download and run a secondary payload. No URLs were found to be malicious, and no document body text was available for further context.
