MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic T1566.001 Spearphishing Attachment

The sample is a malicious Office document containing VBA macros. The 'Document_Open' macro is present and appears to be obfuscated, but the presence of 'WinExec' API references suggests it is designed to execute commands. The primary function of the macro is likely to download and execute a secondary payload, a common technique for initial compromise.
