T1059.005 Visual Basic
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment
The sample is a Microsoft Office Word document with a high-confidence detection for VBA macros, specifically triggering on the Document_Open auto-execution macro. The presence of CreateObject and GetObject calls within the VBA code, combined with the ClamAV detection as a downloader, strongly suggests the macro's purpose is to fetch and execute a second-stage payload. No specific family could be identified, but the technique is consistent with macro-based malware delivery.

-
VBA p-code auto-exec with execution tokens high OLE_VBA_PCODE_AUTOEXEC_EXECCompiled VBA/cache stream contains an auto-execution token together with shell/download/object-execution tokens. This catches p-code-only or source-extraction-failure macro documents where visible source is unavailable.
-
VBA macros detected medium OLE_VBA_MACROSDocument contains VBA macro code
