MITRE ATT&CK
T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment T1059.005 Visual Basic T1140 Deobfuscate/Decode Files or Information

The sample is a malicious Office document containing VBA macros, including AutoOpen and Workbook_Open, indicating it's designed to execute code upon opening. The document body contains a phone number and contact information, consistent with a callback phishing or tech-support scam lure. The critical ClamAV detection and the presence of complex, potentially obfuscated VBA code suggest the document's primary purpose is to download and execute a secondary payload.
