MITRE ATT&CK

T1059.005 Visual Basic T1203 Exploitation for Client Execution

The sample is a malicious Excel file containing VBA macros. The macros utilize ShellExecute to run a command, which is constructed by concatenating strings and values from cells. Specifically, it appears to be attempting to execute a command derived from cell H100 and cell H150, potentially downloading and executing a second-stage payload. The GetObject call and ShellExecute API reference strongly suggest this malicious intent.
