MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1059.003 Windows Command Shell

The file contains VBA macros that utilize the Shell() function, a common technique for executing arbitrary commands. The presence of 'VBA Chr string obfuscation' and the detection of CreateObject calls suggest the macro is designed to download and execute a secondary payload. Without further analysis of the macro's code or network activity, the specific family remains unknown.

Heuristics 4
