MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic

The presence of Auto_Open and Auto_Close macros, along with a critical heuristic for URLDownloadToFile API, strongly indicates malicious intent. The VBA script likely uses these functions to download and execute a secondary payload from one of the embedded URLs. The ClamAV detection as 'Doc.Downloader' further supports this assessment.

Heuristics 6

  • Reference to URLDownloadToFile API critical SC_STR_URLDOWNLOAD
