MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.002 Phishing: Spearphishing Attachment

The file is identified by ClamAV as 'Xls.Dropper.QbotDocu12020-9818439-0', strongly indicating it functions as a dropper for the Qbot banking trojan. The presence of macro-related heuristics further supports its role in executing malicious code. This suggests a phishing attack where the user is tricked into opening the malicious Excel file, leading to the download and execution of a secondary payload.
