MITRE ATT&CK
T1059.005 Visual Basic

The sample is a malicious Office document containing VBA macros. The macros are designed to copy themselves to other open documents, as indicated by the 'Document_Close' subroutine attempting to find and insert code into other documents. This behavior suggests an attempt to propagate or establish persistence. The ClamAV detection further confirms its malicious nature.
